PUBLISHERS'  FOREWORD. 


The  Standard  Prayer  Book  is  an 

American  reprint  of  The  Authorized  Daily 
Prayer  Book,  which  is  in  general  use  today 
throughout  the  British  Empire.  It  was  origi- 
nally published  under  the  authorization  of  the 
late  Chief  Rabbi,  Dr.  Nathan  Marcus  Adler. 
The  English  translation,  by  the  Rev.  Simeon 
Singer,  is  universally  acknowledged  to  be 
the  best  ever  published.  This  American 
edition  is  set  from  new  and  larger  type  and 
h  characterized  by  the  continuity  of  the  text, 
whijh  has  necessitated  the  addition  of  nearly 
300  pages,  making  it  the  most  complete 
daily  prayer-book  ever  published.

MORNING  PRAYER  FOR  YOTTNG  CHILDREN* 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  removest  sleep  from  mine  eyes,  and  slumber 
from  mine  eyelids. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  hast  given  us  the  Law  of  truth,  and  hast 
planted  everlasting  life  in  our  midst. 

Moses  commanded  us  the  Law  as  an  inheritance  of 
the  congregation  of  Jacob. 

Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord  is  One. 

Blessed  be  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom  is  for 
ever  and  ever. 

And  thou  shalt  love  the  Lord  thy  God  with  all  thine 
heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul,  and  with  all  thy  might. 

And  these  words  which  I  command  thee  this  day 
shall  be  upon  thine  heart:  and  thou  shalt  teach  them 
diligently  unto  thy  children,  and  shalt  talk  of  them 
when  thou  sittest  in  thine  house,  and  when  thou  walkest 
by  the  way,  and  when  thou  liest  down,  and  when  thou 
risest  up.  And  thou  shalt  bind  them  for  a  sign  upon 
thine  hand,  and  they  shall  be  for  frontlets  between 
thine  eyes.  And  thou  shalt  write  them  upon  the  door- 
posts of  thy  house  and  upon  thy  gates. 

O  my  God,  guard  my  tongue  from  evil,  and  my  lips 
from  speaking  guile. 

Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,  and  let  my  soul  pursue 
thy  commandments. 

Let  the  words  of  my  mouth  and  the  meditation  of 
my  heart  be  acceptable  before  thee,  O  Lord,  my  Rock 
and  my  Redeemer.

PRAYER  ON  ENTERING  THE  SYNAGOGUE. 

On  entering  the  Synagogue  say   the  following: — 

As  for  me,  in  the  abundance  of  thy  loving- 
kindness  will  I  come  into  thy  house :  I  will  wor- 
ship toward  thy  holy  temple  in  the  fear  of  thee. 

Into  the  house  of  God  we  will  walk  with  the  throng. 

How  goodly  are  thy  tents,  O  Jacob,  thy  dwelling 
places,  O  Israel !  As  for  me,  in  the  abundance  of  thy 
lovingkindness  will  I  come  into  thy  house :  I  will  wor- 
ship toward  thy  holy  temple  in  the  fear  of  thee.  Lord, 
I  love  the  habitation  of  thy  house,  and  the  place  where 
thy  glory  dwelleth.  As  for  me,  I  will  worship  and 
bow  down:  I  will  bend  the  knee  before  the  Lord, 
my  Maker.  And  as  for  me,  may  my  prayer  unto  thee, 
O  Lord,  be  in  an  acceptable  time:  O  God,  in  the 
abundance  of  thy  lovingkindness,  answer  me  in  the 
truth  of  thy  salvation. 


MORNING  SERVICE. 

1.  Magnified  and  praised  be  the  living  God:  he  is, 
and  there  is  no  limit  in  time  unto  his  being. 

2.  He  is  One,  and  there  is  no  unity  like  unto  his 
unity ;  inconceivable  is  he,  and  unending  is  his  unity. 

3.  He  hath  neither  bodily  form  nor  substance:  we 
can  compare  nought  unto  him  in  his  holiness. 

4.  He  was  before  anything  that  hath  been  created — 
even  the  first:  but  his  existence  had  no  beginning. 

5.  Behold  he  is  the  Lord  of  the  universe :  to  every 
creature  he  teacheth  his  greatness  and  his  sovereignty, 

6.  The  rich  gift  of  his  prophecy  he  gave  unto  the  men. 
of  his  choice,  in  whom  he  gloried.

7.  There  hath  never  yet  arisen  in  Israel  a  prophet 
like  unto  Moses,  one  who  hath  beheld  his  similitude. 

8.  The  Law  of  truth  God  gave  unto  his  people  by 
the  hand  of  his  prophet  who  was  faithful  in  his  house. 

9.  God  will  not  alter  nor  change  his  Law  to  everlast- 
ing for  any  other. 

10.  He  watcheth  and  knoweth  our  secret  thoughts: 
he  beholdeth  the  end  of  a  thing  before  it  existeth. 

11.  He  bestoweth  lovingkindness  upon  a  man  ac- 
cording to  his  work ;  he  giveth  to  the  wicked  evil  ac- 
cording to  his  wickedness. 

12.  He  will  send  our  anointed  at  the  end  of  days,  to 
redeem  them  that  wait  for  the  end — his  salvation. 

13.  In  the  abundance  of  his  lovingkindness  God  will 
quicken  the  dead.  Blessed  for  evermore  be  his  glorious 
name. 

He  is  Lord  of  the  universe,  who  reigned  ere  any 
creature  yet  was  formed: 

At  the  time  when  all  things  were  made  by  his  de- 
sire, then  was  his  name  proclaimed  King. 

And  after  all  things  shall  have  had  an  end,  he  alone, 
the  dreaded  one,  shall  reign ; 

Who  was,  who  is,  and  who  will  be  in  glory. 

And  he  is  One,  and  there  ^'s  no  second  to  compare 
to  him,  to  consort  with  him: 

Without  beginning,  without  end :  to  him  belong 
strength  and  dominion. 

And  he  is  my  God — my  Redeemer  liveth — and  a  rock 
in  my  travail  in  time  of  distress ; 

And  he  is  my  banner  and  my  refuge,  the  portion  of 
my  cup  on  the  day  when  I  call. 

Into  his  hand  I  commend  my  spirit,  when  I  sleep 
and  when  I  wake ; 

And  with  my  spirit,  my  body  also :  the  Lord  is  with 
me,  and  I  will  not  fear.

4  MORNING  SERVICE 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments, 
and  given  us  command  concerning  the  washing  of  the 
hands. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  formed  man  in  wisdom,  and  cre- 
ated in  him  many  orifices  and  vessels.  It  is  revealed 
and  known  before  the  throne  of  thy  glory,  that  if  one 
of  these  be  opened,  or  one  of  those  be  closed,  it  would 
be  impossible  to  exist  and  to  stand  before  thee. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  healest  all  flesh  and 
doest  wondrously. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments, 
and  commanded  us  to  occupy  ourselves  with  the  words 
of  the  Law. 

Make  pleasant,  therefore,  we  beseech  thee,  O  Lord 
our  God,  the  words  of  thy  Law  in  our  mouth  and  in  the 
mouth  of  thy  people,  the  house  of  Israel,  so  that  we 
with  our  offspring  and  the  offspring  of  thy  people,  the 
house  of  Israel,  may  all  know  thy  name  and  learn  thy 
Law.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  teachest  the  Law 
to  thy  people  Israel. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  hast  chosen  us  from  all  nations  and  given 
us  thy  Law.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  givest  the 
Law.

O  MORNING  SERVICE 

The  Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee :  the  Lord  make 
his  face  to  shine  upon  thee,  and  be  gracious  unto  thee : 
the  Lord  turn  his  face  unto  thee,  and  give  thee  peace. 

Mishnah.     Treatise  Peah,  ch.  i. 

These  are  the  things  which  have  no  fixed  measure 
'(by  enactment  of  the  Law)  :  the  corners  of  the  field, 
the  first  fruits,  the  offerings  brought  on  appearing 
l)efore  the  Lord  at  the  three  festivals,  the  practice  of 
charity  and  the  study  of  the  Law. — These  are  the 
things,  the  fruits  of  which  a  man  enjoys  in  this  world, 
while  the  stock  remains  for  him  for  the  world  to  come : 
viz.,  honoring  father  and  mother,  the  practice  of  char- 
ity, timely  attendance  at  the  house  of  study  morning 
and  evening,  hospitality  to  wayfarers,  visiting  the  sick, 
dowering  the  bride,  attending  the  dead  to  the  grave, 
devotion  in  prayer,  and  making  peace  between  man  and 
his  fellow;  but  the  study  of  the  Law  is  equal  to  them 
all. 

O  my  God,  the  soul  which  thou  gavest  me  is  pure ; 
thou  didst  create  it,  thou  didst  form  it,  thou  didst 
breathe  it  into  me;  thou  preservest  it  within  me;  and 
thou  wilt  take  it  from  me,  but  wilt  restore  it  unto  me 
hereafter.  So  long  as  the  soul  is  within  me,  I  will  give 
thanks  unto  thee,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of  my 
fathers.  Sovereign  of  all  works,  Lord  of  all  souls! 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  restorest  souls  nnto 
■dead  bodies.

8  MORNING  SERVICE 

O  lead  us  not  into  the  power  of  sin,  or  of  transgres- 
sion or  iniquity,  or  of  temptation,  or  of  scorn :  let  not 
the  evil  inclination  have  sway  over  us :  keep  us  far 
from  a  bad  man  and  a  bad  companion :  make  us  cleave 
to  the  good  inclination  and  to  good  works :  subdue 
our  inclination  so  that  it  may  submit  itself  unto  thee; 
and  let  us  obtain  this  day,  and  every  day,  grace,  favor 
and  mercy  in  thine  eyes,  and  in  the  eyes  of  all  who 
behold  us;  and  bestow  lovingkindnesses  upon  us. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  bestowest  lovingkind- 
nesses upon  thy  people  Israel 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of  my 
fathers,  to  deliver  me  this  day,  and  every  day,  from 
arrogant  men  and  from  arrogance,  from  a  bad  maii, 
from  a  bad  companion  and  from  a  bad  neighbor,  and 
from  any  mishap,  and  from  the  adversary  that  destroy- 
eth ;  from  a  hard  judgment,  and  from  a  hard  opponent, 
whether  he  be  a  son  of  the  covenant  or  be  not  a  son 
ot  the  covenant. 

At  all  times  let  a  man  fear  God  as  well  in  private  as 
in  public,  acknowledge  the  truth,  and  speak  the  truth 
in  his  heart ;  and  let  him  rise  early  and  say : 


Sovereign  of  all  worlds !  Not  because  of  our  right- 
eous acts  do  we  lay  our  supplications  before  thee,  but 
because  of  thine  abundant  mercies.  What  are  we?  What 
is  our  life?  What  is  our  piety?  What  our  righteousness?

y  MORNING  SERVICE 

What  our  helpfulness?  What  our  strength?  What 
our  might?  What  shall  we  say  before  thee,  O  Lord 
our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers?  Are  not  all  the 
mighty  men  as  nought  before  thee,  the  men  of  renown 
as  though  they  had  not  been,  the  wise  as  if  without 
knowledge,  and  the  men  of  understanding  as  if  with- 
out discernment?  For  most  of  their  works  are  void, 
and  the  days  of  their  lives  are  vanity  before  thee,  and 
the  pre-eminence  of  man  over  the  beast  is  nought,  for 
all  is  vanity. 

Nevertheless  we  are  thy  people,  the  children  of  thy 
covenant,  the  children  of  Abraham,  thy  friend,  to 
whom  thou  didst  swear  on  Mount  Moriah;  the  seed 
of  Isaac,  his  only  son,  who  was  bound  upon  the  altar; 
the  congregation  of  Jacob,  thy  first  be)rn  son,  whose 
name  thou  didst  call  Israel  and  Jeshurun  by  reason 
of  the  love  wherewith  thou  didst  love  him,  and  the  joy 
wherewith  thou  didst  rejoice  in  him. 

It  is,  therefore,  our  duty  to  thank,  praise  and  glorify 
thee,  to  bless,  to  sanctify  and  to  offer  praise  and  thanks- 
giving unto  thy  name.  Happy  are  we !  how  goodly  is 
our  portion,  and  how  pleasant  is  our  lot,  and  how 
beautiful  our  heritage!  Happy  are  we  who,  early  and 
late,  morning  and  evening,  twice  every  day,  declare : 

Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord  is  One 
Blessed  be  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom  is  fof 
ever  and  ever.

Thou  wast  the  same  ere  the  world  was  created ;  thou 
hast  been  the  same  since  the  world  hath  been  created ; 
thou  art  the  same  in  this  world,  and  thou  wilt  be  the 
same  in  the  world  to  come  Sanctify  thy  name  upon 
them  that  sanctify  it,  yea,  sanctify  thy  name  throughout 
thy  world;  and  through  thy  salvation  let  our  horn  be 
exalted  and  raised  on  high.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord, 
who  sanctifiest  thy  name  amongst  the  many. 

Thou  art  the  Lord  our  God  in  heaven  and  on  earth, 
and  in  the  highest  heaven  of  heavens.  \^erily  thou  art 
the  first  and  thou  art  the  last,  and  beside  thee  there 
is  no  God.  O  gather  them  that  hope  for  thee  from  the 
four  corners  of  the  earth.  Let  all  the  inhabitants  of 
the  world  perceive  and  know  that  thou  art  God,  thou 
alone,  over  all  the  kingdoms  of  the  earth.  Thou  hast 
made  the  heavens  and  the  earth,  the  sea  and  all  that 
is  therein;  and  which  among  all  the  works  of  thy 
hands,  whether  among  those  above  or  among  those 
beneath,  can  say  unto  thee,  What  doest  thou?  Our 
Father  who  art  in  heaven,  deal  kindly  with  us  for  the 
sake  of  thy  great  name  by  which  we  are  called ;  and 
fulfil  unto  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  that  which  is 
written.  At  that  time  will  I  bring  you  in,  and  at 
that   time   will   I   gather   you ;    for   I   will   make   you

11  MORNING  SER/ICE 

a  name  and  a  praise  among  all  the  peoples  of  the 
earth,  when  I  bring  back  your  captivity  before  your 
eyes,  saith  the  Lord. 

Numbers  xxviii.  1 — 8. 
And  the  Lord  spake  unto  Moses,  saying.  Command 
the  children  of  Israel,  and  say  unto  them.  My  oblation, 
my  food  for  my  offerings  made  by  fire,  of  a  sweet 
savor  unto  me,  shall  ye  observe  to  offer  unto  me  in  its 
due  season.  And  thou  shalt  say  unto  them.  This  is  the 
offering  made  by  fire  which  ye  shall  offer  unto  the 
Lord;  he-lambs  of  the  first  year  without  blemish,  two 
day  by  day,  for  a  continual  burnt  offering.  The  one 
lamb  shalt  thou  offer  in  the  morning,  and  the  other 
lamb  shalt  thou  offer  at  even ;  and  the  tenth  part  of  an 
ephah  of  fine  flour  for  a  meal  offering,  mingled  with 
the  fourth  part  of  an  hin  of  beaten  oil.  It  is  a  contin- 
ual burnt  offering,  which  was  ordained  in  mount  Sinai 
for  a  sweet  savor,  an  offering  made  by  fire  unto  the 
Lord.  And  the  drink  offering  thereof  shall  be  the 
fourth  part  of  an  hin  for  the  one  lamb:  in  the  holy 
place  shalt  thou  pour  out  a  drink  offering  of  strong 
drink  unto  the  Lord.  And  the  other  lamb  shalt  thou 
offer  at  even :  as  the  meal  offering  of  the  morning,  and 
as  the  drink  offering  thereof,  thorn  shalt  offer  it,  an 
offering  made  by  fire,  of  a  sweet  savor  unto  the  Lord. 

Leviticus  i.  11. 

And  he  shall  slay  it  on  the  side  of  the  altar  north- 
ward before  the  Lord :  and  Aaron's  sons,  the  priests, 
shall  sprinkle  its  blood  upon  the  altar  round  about.

MORNING  SERVICE 


^iishnah,  Treatise  Zebachim,  ch.  v. 


1.  Which  are  the  places  where  the  sacrifices  were  offered? 
—Those  that  were  most  holy  were  slain  on  the  north  side  of 
the  altar:  the  bull  and  the  he-goat  of  the  Day  of  Atonement 
were  slain  on  the  north  side ;  their  blood  was  received  in  a 
vessel  of  ministry  on  the  north  side,  and  had  to  be  sprinkled 
between  the  staves  of  the  ark,  and  towards  the  veil,  and  upon 
the  golden  altar :  one  of  these  sprinklings  omitted  rendered 
the  whole  ceremony  invalid.  The  remaining  blood  the  priest 
poured  out  at  the  western  base  of  the  outer  altar ;  if,  however, 
he  did  not  do  so,  the  omission  did  not  render  the  ceremony; 
invalid. 

2.  The  bulls  and  he-goats  which  were  to  be  wholly  burnt; 
were  slain  on  the  north  side ;  their  blood  was  received  in  a 
vessel  of  ministry  on  the  north  side,  and  had  to  be  sprinkled 
towards  the  veil  and  upon  the  golden  altar:  one  of  these 
sprinklings  omitted  rendered  the  whole  ceremony  invalid. 
The  remaining  blood  the  priest  poured  out  at  the  western 
base  of  the  outer  altar ;  if,  however,  he  failed  to  do  so,  it  did 
not  render  the  ceremony  invalid :  both  these  and  the  preceding 
offerings  were  burnt  in  the  repository  of  ashes. 

3.  The  sin  offerings  of  the  congregation  and  of  the  in- 
dividual.— These  are  the  sin  offerings  of  the  congregation: 
the  he-goats  offered  on  the  new  moon  and  on  the  festivals. 
They  were  slain  on  the  north  side;  their  blood  was  received 
in  a  vessel  of  ministry  on  the  north  side,  and  of  this  blood 
four  sprinklings  had  to  be  made,  one  upon  each  of  the  four 
corners  of  the  altar.  How  was  this  done?  The 
priest  went  up  the  ascent,  passed  on  to  the  middle 
terrace  that  surrounded  the  altar,  and  came  successively  to  the

south-east,  the  north-east,  the  north-west  and  the  south-west 
corners.  The  remaining  blood  he  poured  out  at  the  southern 
base  of  the  altar.  These  sacrifices  might  be  eaten,  dressed 
after  any  manner,  by  the  males  of  the  priesthood,  within  the 
hangings  of  the  court,  the  same  day  and  evening  until  mid- 
night. 

4.  The  burnt  offering  belonged  to  the  class  of  the  most 
holy.  It  was  slain  on  the  north  side ;  its  blood  was  received 
in  a  vessel  of  ministry  on  the  north  side ;  and  of  its  blood  two 
sprinklings  had  to  be  made  (at  opposite  angles  of  the  altar) 
so  as  to  constitute  four,  (a  portion  of  the  blood  thus  reaching 
each  of  the  four  sides  of  the  altar).  This  offering  had  also 
to  be  flayed,  dismembered  and  totally  consumed  by  fire. 

5.  The  peace  offerings  of  the  congregation  and  the  tres- 
pass offerings. — These  are  the  trespass  offerings :  the  trespass 
offerings  for  robbery,  for  profane  appropriation  of  sanctifi.e,d 
objects,  for  carnally  knowing  a  handmaid  already  promised  in 

narriage ;  the  trespass  offering  of  a  Nazirite  who  has  become 
defiled  by  a  dead  body ;  the  trespass  offering  of  a  leper  at  his 
cleansing;  the  trespass  offering  of  one  who  is  in  doubt 
whether  he  has  committed  an  act  that  has  to  be  atoned  for 
by  a  sin  offering.  All  thtse  were  slain  on  the  north  side; 
their  blood  was  received  in  a  vessel  of  ministry  on  the  north 
side ;  and  of  their  blood  two  sprinklings  had  to  be  made  at  the 
altar  in  such  a  manner  as  to  constitute  four.  These  sacrifices 
might  be  eaten,  dressed  after  any  manner,  by  the  males  of  the 
priesthood,  within  the  hangings  of  the  court,  the  same  day 
and  evening  until  midnight. 

6.  The  thank  offering  and  the  ram  of  the  Nazi- 
rite  were  holy  in  a  minor  degree.  They  might  be 
slain   '"'vi   any  part  of   the  court ;  of  their  blood  two   sprink-

as  to  constitute  four ;  and  they  might  be  eaten,  dressed  after 
any  manner,  by  any  person,  in  any  part  of  the  city,  the  same 
day  and  until  midnight.  To  the  portions  thereof  belonging 
to  the  priests  the  same  rule  applied  as  to  the  rest,  except 
that  the  former  might  only  be  eaten  by  the  priests,  their 
wives,  their  children  and  their  slaves. 

7.  The  peace  offerings  were  also  holy  in  a  minor  degree. 
They  might  be  slain  in  any  part  of  the  court;  of  their  blood 
two  sprinklings  had  to  be  made  at  the  altar  in  such  a  manner 
as  to  constitute  four,  and  they  might  be  eaten,  dressed  after 
any  manner,  by  any  person,  in  any  part  of  the  city,  during 
two  days  and  one  night.  To  the  portions  thereof  belonging 
to  the  priests  the  same  rule  applied  as  to  the  rest,  except  that 
the  former  might  only  be  eaten  by  the  priests,  their  wives, 
their    children    and    their    slaves. 

8.  The  first-born,  the  tithe  of  cattle  and  the  paschal  lamb 
were  likewise  holy  in  a  minor  degree.  They  might  be  slain 
in  any  part  of  the  court ;  only  one  sprinkling  of  their  blood 
had  to  be  made ;  this,  however,  had  to  be  done  towards  the 
base  of  the  altar.  In  respect  to  their  consumption  the  follow- 
ing differences  prevailed :  the  first-born  might  be  eaten  only 
by  the  priests,  while  the  tithe  might  be  eaten  by  any  person : 
both  might  be  eaten,  dressed  after  any  manner,  in  any  part 
of  the  city,  during  two  days  and  one  night.  The  paschal  lamb 
might  only  be  eaten  the  same  evening  until  midnight ;  it  might 
be  partaken  of  by  none  but  the  previously  appointed  number 
of  persons,  and  it  might  only  be  eaten  roasted.

pies  by  which  the  Law  is  expounded: — 1.  The  inference 
from  minor  to  major.  2.  The  inference  from  a  similarity  of 
phrases.  3.  A  general  law  may  be  derived  by  induction  from 
different  cases  which,  occurring  in  the  same  or  in  different 
verses,  have  yet  some  feature  in  common.  4.  A  general 
proposition  followed  by  the  enumeration  of  particulars  already 
comprehended  in  the'  general  proposition,  (in  which  case 
the  scope  of  the  proposition  is  limited  by  the  things  specified), 
5.  An  enumeration  of  particulars  followed  by  a  general 
proposition  in  which  they  are  also  comprehended,  (in  which 
case  the  scope  of  the  proposition  extends  also  to  the  things 
not  specified).  6.  Two  general  propositions,  separated  from 
each  other  by  an  enumeration  of  particulars,  include  only  such 
things  as  are  similar  to  those  specified  7.  An  inference  drawn 
from  a  general  proposition  complemented  by  a  particular 
term,  and  an  inference  drawn  from  a  particular  term  com- 
plemented by  a  general  proposition.  8.  If  anything  is  included 
in  a  general  proposition  and  is  then  made  the  subject  of  a 
special  statement,  that  which  is  predicated  of  it  is  not  to  be 
understood  as  limited  to  itself  alone,  but  is  to  be  applied  to 
the  whole  of  the  general  proposition  9.  If  anything  is  in- 
cluded in  a  general  proposition,  and  is  then  singled  out  in 
order  to  be  made  the  subject  of  a  special  statement,  similar 
to  the  general  proposition,  this  particularisation  is  intended, 
so  far  as  its  subject  is  concerned,  to  lessen  and  not  to  add  to 
its  restrictions.  10.  If  anything  is  included  in  a  general  propo- 
sition, and  is  then  singled  out  in  order  to  be  made  the  sub- 
ject of  a  special  statement,  not  similar  to  the  general  propo- 
sition, this  particularisation  is  intended  in  some  respects^  to 
lessen  and  in  others  to  add  to  its  restrictions.  11.  If  anything 
is  included  in  a  general  proposition,  and  is  then  made  the 
subject  of  a  fresh  statement  (not  in  harmony  with  the  for- 
mer), the  terms  of  the  general  proposition  will  not  apply  to 
it,  unless  the  Scripture  distinctly  indicates  that  they  shall 
apply.  12.  The  meaning  of  a  passage  may  be  deduced  from 
its  context,  or  from  some  subsequent  passage.  13.  Similarly, 
when  two  passages  are  in  contradiction  to  each^  other,  the 
explanation  can  be  determined  only  when  a  third  text  is 
found,  capable  of  harmonizing  the  two. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fatikrs,  that  the  temple  be  speedily  rebuilt  in  our  dayc  and 
grant  our  portion  in  <-hy  Law.  And  there  we  will  serve  thee 
with  awe,  as  in  the  days  of  old,  and  as  in  ancient  years

Before  putting  on  the  Tallith,  say  the  following:— 

T  am  here  enwrapping  myself  in  this  fringed  robe,  in 
fulfilment  of  the  command  of  my  Creator,  as  it  is 
svritten  in  the  Law,  They  shall  make  them  a  fringe 
upon  the  corners  of  their  garments  throughout  their 
generations.  And  even  as  I  cover  myself  with  the 
Tallith  in  this  world,  so  may  my  soul  deserve  to  be 
clothed  with  a  beauteous  spiritual  robe  in  the  world 
to  come,  in  the  garden  of  Eden.     Amen. 

On  putting  on  the  Tallith,  say: — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  command- 
ments, and  hast  commanded  us  to  enwrap  ourselves 
in  the  fringed  garment. 

How  precious  is  thy  lovingkindness,  O  God!  And 
the  children  of  men  take  refuge  under  the  shadow  of 
Jthy  wings.  They  sate  themselves  with  the  fatness  of 
thy  house ;  and  thou  givest  them  to  drink  of  the  river 
of  thy  pleasures.  For  with  thee  is  the  fountain  of 
life:  in  thy  light  do  we  see  light.  O  continue  thy 
lovingkindness  unto  them  that  know  thee,  and  thy 
righteousness  to  the  upright  in  heart. 

Meditation  before  laying   the   Tephillin. 

I  am  here  intent  upon  the  act  of  laying  the  Tephillin, 
in  fulfilment  of  the  command  of  my  Creator,  who  hath 
commanded  us  to  lay  the  Tephillin,  as  it  is  written  in 
the  Law,  And  thou  shalt  bind  them  for  a  sign  upon 
thine  hand,  and  they  shall  be  for  frontlets  between 
thine  eyes.  Within  these  Tephillin  are  placed  four 
sections    of    the    Law,*    that    declare    the    absolute

the  brain,  together  with  all  senses  and  faculties,  is  to 
be  subjected  to  his  service,  blessed  be  he.  May  the 
effect  of  the  precept  thus  observed  be  to  extend  to  me 
long  life  with  sacred  influences  and  holy  thoughts, 
free  from  every  approach,  even  in  imagination,  to  sin 
and  iniquity.  May  the  evil  inclination  not  mislead  or 
entice  us,  but  may  we  be  led  to  serve  the  Lord  as  it  is 
in  our  hearts  to  do.     Amen. 


On  placing  the  Tephillah  on  the  arm,  say: — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of 
the  universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  com- 
mandments, and  hast  commanded  us  to  lay  the 
Tephillin. 

On  placing  the  Tephillah  on  the  forehead,  say: — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of 
the  universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  com- 
mandments, and  hast  given  us  command  con- 
cerning the  precept  of  the  Tephillin. 

Blessed  be.  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom  Is  for 
€ver  and  ever.

The  Retsuah  is  placed  thrice  round  the  middle  finger^

And  I  will  betroth  thee  unto  me  for  ever; 
yea,  I  will  betroth  thee  unto  me  in  righteous- 
ness, and  in  judgment,  and  in  lovingkindness, 
and  in  mercy :  I  will  even  betroth  thee  to  me  in 
faithfulness;  and  thou  shalt  know  the  Lord. 


In  some  Congregations  Psalm  xxx  {page  loj)  is  said  here. 


Blessed  be  he  who  spake,  and  the  world  ex- 
isted :  blessed  be  he :  blessed  be  he  who  was  the 
maker  of  the  world  in  the  beginning:  blessed 
be  he  who  speaketh  and  doeth:  blessed  be  he 
who  decreeth  and  performeth:  blessed  be  he 
who  hath  mercy  upon  the  earth:  blessed  be 
he  who  hath  mercy  upon  his  creatures :  blessed 
be  he  who  payeth  a  good  reward  to  them  that 
fear  him:  blessed  be  he  who  liveth  for  ever, 
and  endureth  to  eternity :  blessed  be  he  who  re- 
deemeth  and  delivereth :  blessed  be  his  name. — 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  O  God  and  merciful  Father,  praised 
by  the  mouth  of  thy  people,  lauded  and  glori- 
fied by  the  tongue  of  thy  loving  ones  and  thy

God,  thou  the  only  one,,  the  Ufe  of  all  worlds. 
O  King,  praised  and  glorified  be  thy  great  name 
for  ever  and  ever.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord, 
a  King  extolled  with  praises. 


1  Chron.  xvi.  8 — 36. 

O  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord,  call  upon  his  name; 
make  known  his  doings  among  the  peoples.  Sing  unto 
him,  sing  praises  unto  him;  tell  ye  of  all  his  marvel- 
lous works.  Glory  ye  in  his  holy  name:  let  the  heart 
of  them  rejoice  that  seek  the  Lord.  Search  ye  for  the 
Lord  and  his  strength;  seek  ye  his  face  evermore. 
Remember  his  marvellous  works  that  he  hath  done: 
his  wonders,  and  the  judgments  of  his  mouth;  O  ye 
seed  of  Israel,  his  servant,  ye  children  of  Jacob,  his 
chosen  ones.  He  is  the  Lord  our  God :  his  judgments 
are  in  all  the  earth.  Remember  his  covenant  for  ever, 
the  word  which  he  commanded  to  a  thousand  genera- 
tions;  (the  covenant)  which  he  made  with  Abraham, 
and  his  oath  unto  Isaac ;  and  confirmed  the  same  unto 
Jacob  for  a  statute,  to  Israel  for  an  everlasting  cov- 
enant: saying.  Unto  thee  will  I  give  the  land  of  Canaan, 
as  the  lot  of  your  inheritance:  when  ye  were  but  a 
few  men  in  number;  yea,  few,  and  sojourners  in  it; 
and  they  went  about  from  nation  to  nation,  and 
from  one  kingdom  to  another  people.  He  suf- 
fered no  man  to  oppress  them ;  yea,  he  rebuked 
kings    for    their    sakes ;    (saying),    Touch    not    mine

anointed  ones,  and  do  my  prophets  no  harm.  Sing  unto 
the  Lord,  all  the  earth  ;  proclaim  his  salvation  from  day 
to  day.  Recount  his  glory  among  the  nations,  his  mar- 
vels among  all  the  peoples.  For  great  is  the  Lord,  and 
exceedingly  to  be  praised :  he  is  to  be  feared  above  all 
gods.  For  all  the  gods  of  the  peoples  are  things  of 
nought ;  but  the  Lord  made  the  heavens.  Grandeur  and 
majesty  are  before  him:  strength  and  gladness  are  in 
his  place.  Give  unto  the  Lord,  ye  families  of  the  peo- 
ples, give  unto  the  Lord  glory  and  strength.  Give  unto 
the  Lord  the  glory  due  unto  his  name :  take  an  offering, 
and  come  before  him:  v^orship  the  Lord  in  the  beauty 
of  holiness.  Tremble  before  him  all  the  earth ;  the  world 
also  is  set  firm,  that  it  cannot  be  moved.  Let  the  heav- 
ens rejoice,  and  let  the  earth  be  glad;  and  let  them  say 
among  the  nations,  The  Lord  reigneth.  Let  the  sea 
roar,  and  the  fulness  thereof ;  let  the  plain  exult,  and  all 
that  is  therein.  Then  shall  the  trees  of  the  forest  exult 
before  the  Lord,  for  he  cometh  to  judge  the  earth.  O 
give  thanks  unto  the  Lord ;  for  he  is  good :  for  his  lov- 
ingkindness  endureth  forever.  And  say  ye,  Save  us,  O 
God  of  our  salvation,  and  gather  us  and  deliver  us  from 
the  nations,  to  give  thanks  unto  thy  holy  name,  and  to 
triumph  in  thy  praise.  Blessed  be  the  Lord,  the  God 
of  Israel,  from  everlasting  even  to  everlasting.  And 
all  the  people  said,  Amen,  and  praised  the  Lord. 
Exalt  ye  the  Lord  our  God,  and  worship  at  his  foot-

ship at  his  holy  mount ;  for  the  Lord  our  God  is  holy. 
And  he,  being  merciful,  forgiveth  iniquity,  and  destroy- 
eth  not:  yea,  many  a  time  he  turneth  his  anger  away, 
and  doth  not  stir  up  all  his  wrath.  Withhold  not  thou 
thy  tender  mercies  from  me,  O  Lord:  let  thy  loving- 
kindness  and  thy  truth  continually  preserve  me.  Re- 
member, O  Lord,  thy  tender  mercies  and  thy  loving- 
kindnesses  ;  for  they  have  been  ever  of  old.  Ascribe  ye 
strength  unto  God:  his  majesty  is  over  Israel,  and  his 
strength  is  in  the  skies.  O  God,  thou  art  to  be  feared 
out  of  thy  holy  places :  the  God  of  Israel  he  giveth 
strength  and  power  unto  his  people.  Blessed  be  God. 
O  God  of  vengeance,  Lord,  O  God  of  vengeance,  shine 
forth.  Lift  up  thyself,  thou  judge  of  the  earth:  render 
to  the  proud  their  desert.  Salvation  belongeth  unto  the 
Lord :  thy  blessing  be  upon  thy  people.  (Selah.)  The 
Lord  of  hosts  is  with  us;  the  God  of  Jacob  is  our 
stronghold.  (Selah.  )  O  Lord  of  hosts,  happy  is  the 
man  that  trusteth  in  thee.  Save,  Lord :  may  the  King 
answer  us  on  the  day  when  we  call.  Save  thy  people, 
and  bless  thine  inheritance :  feed  them,  and  carry  them 
for  ever  Our  soul  waiteth  for  the  Lord :  he  is  our  help 
and  our  shield.  For  our  heart  shall  rejoice  in  him,  be- 
cause we  have  trusted  in  his  holy  name.  Let  thy  loving- 
kindness,  O  Lord,  be  upon  us,  according  as  we  have 
hoped  for  thee.  Show  us  thy  lovingkindness,  O  Lord, 
and  grant  us  thy  salvation.    Rise  up  for  our  help  and  set

thy  God,  who  b /ought  thee  up  out  of  the  land  of  Egypt : 
open  wide  thy  mouth  and  I  will  fill  it.  Happy  is  the 
people,  that  is  in  such  a  case :  happy  is  the  people,  whose 
God  is  the  Lord.  And  as  for  me,  I  have  trusted  in  thy 
lovingkindness  ;  my  heart  shall  be  glad  in  thy  salvation : 
I  will  sing  unto  the  Lord,  because  he  hath  dealt  bounti- 
fully with  me.

day  before  Passover,  the  Intermediate  days  of  Passover, 
and  on  the  day  before  the  Day  of  Atonement. 

Psalm  c. 

A  Psalm  of  Thanksgiving.  Shout  for  joy  unto  the 
Lord,  all  ye  lands.  Serve  the  Lord  with  joy:  come  be- 
fore him  with  exulting.  Know  ye  that  the  Lord  he  is 
God :  he  hath  made  us,  and  we  are  his,  his  people  and 
the  sheep  of  his  pasture.  Enter  into  his  gates  with 
thanksgiving,  and  into  his  courts  with  praise :  give 
thanks  unto  him,  bless  his  name.  For  the  Lord  is 
good;  his  lovingkindness  is  everlasting;  and  his  faith- 
fulness from  generation  to  generation. 

On  Weekdays  continue  "Let  the  glory,"  etc.,  p.  ZZ.

Psalm  xix. 

For  the  Chief  Musician.     A  Psalm  of  David.     The 

heavens  recount  the  glory  of  God,  and  the  firmament  de- 

clareth  his  handiwork.     Day  unto  day  poureth   forth

24  MORNING  SERVICE 

There  is  no  speech  nor  language ;  their  voice  cannot  be 
heard.    Their  sound  is  gone  out  through  all  the  earth, 
and  their  words  to  the  end  of  the  world ;  in  them  hath 
he  set  a  tent  for  the  sun.     And  he  is  as  a  bridegroom 
coming  out  of  his  chamber,  and  rejoiceth  as  a  strong 
man  to  run  his  course.    His  going  forth  is  from  the  end 
of  the  heaven,  and  his  circuit  unto  the  ends  of  it:  and 
there  is  nothing  hid  from  his  heat. — The  law  of  the 
Lord  is  perfect,  restoring  the  soul:  the  testimony  of 
the  Lord  is  faithful,  making  wise  the  simple.    The  pre- 
cepts of  the  Lord  are  right,  rejoicing  the  heart:  the 
commandment  of  the  Lord  is  pure,  enlightening  the 
eyes.    The  fear  of  the  Lord  is  clean,  enduring  for  ever : 
the  judgments  of  the  Lord  are  truthful,  righteous  alto- 
gether.    More  to  be  desired  are  they  than  gold,  yea, 
than  much  fine  gold;  sweeter  also  than  honey  and  the 
droppings  of  the  honeycomb.     Moreover  by  them  is 
thy  servant  warned:  in  keeping  them  there  is  great 
reward.    Who  can  discern  his  errors  ?     Clear  thou  me 
from  hidden  faults.    Keep  back  thy  servant  also  from 
presumptuous  sins;  let  them  not  have  dominion  over 
me :  then  shall  I  be  blameless,  and  I  shall  be  clear  from 
great  transgression.     Let  the  words  of  my  mouth  and 
the  meditation  of  my  heart  be  acceptable  before  thee, 
O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer. 

Psalm  xxxiv. 

A  Psalm  of   David;   when  he  changed  his   behavior  before 
Abimelech,  who  drove  him  away,  and  he  departed. 

I      will      bless      the      Lord      at      all      times:      his 
praise  shall  continually  be  in  my  mouth.

25  MORNING  SERVICE 

My  soul  shall  make  her  boast  in  the  Lord :  the  meek 
shall  hear  and  rejoice. 

0  magnify  the  Lord  with  me,  and  let  us  exalt  his 
name  together. 

1  sought  the  Lord,  and  he  answered  me,  and  deliv- 
ered me  from  all  my  fears. 

They  looked  unto  him,  and  shone  with  joy:  and  their 
faces  shall  not  be  confounded. 

This  sufferer  cried,  and  the  Lord  heard  him,  and 
saved  him  out  of  all  his  troubles. 

The  angel  of  the  Lord  encampeth  round  about  them 
that  fear  him,  and  delivereth  them. 

O  taste  and  see  that  the  Lord  is  good :  happy  is  the 
man  that  taketh  refuge  in  him. 

O  fear  the  Lord,  ye  his  holy  ones :  for  there  is  no 
want  to  them  that  fear  him. 

.    Young  lions  do  lack,  and  suffer  hunger:  but  they 
that  seek  the  Lord  shall  not  want  any  good. 

Come,  ye  children,  hearken  unto  me:   I  will  teach 
you  the  fear  of  the  Lord. 

What  man  is  he  that  delighteth  in  life,  and  loveth 
many  days  that  he  may  see  good? 

Keep  thy  tongue  from  evil  and  thy  lips  from  speak- 
ing guile.  m 

Depart  from  evil  and  do  good ;  seek  peace  and  pur- 
sue it. 

The  eyes  of  the  Lord  are  towards  the  righteous,  and 
his  ears  are  towards  their  cry. 

The  face  of  the  Lord  is  against  them  that  do  evil, 
to  cut  off  the  remembrance  of  them  from  the  earth. 

(The  righteous)  cry,  and  the  Lord  hearkeneth,  and 
delivereth  them  out  of  all  their  troubles. 

The  Lord  is  nigh  unto  them  that  are  of  a  broken 
heart,  and  saveth  such  as  are  of  a  contrite  spirit.

Xb  MORNING  SERVICE 

Many  are  the  evil  fortunes  of  the  righteous :  but  the 
Lord  deUvereth  him  out  of  them  all. 

He  keepeth  all  his  bones :  not  one  of  them  is 
broken. 

Evil  shall  slay  the  wicked ;  and  they  that  hate  the 
righteous  shall  be  condemned. 

The  Lord  setteth  free  the  soul  of  his  servants; 
and  none  that  take  refuge  in  him  shall  be  condemned. 

Psalm  xc. 

A  Prayer  of  Moses,  the  man  of  God.  O  Lord,  thoi 
hast  been  a  dwelling  place  unto  us  in  all  generations. 
Before  the  mountains  were  brought  forth,  or  ever  thou 
gavest  birth  to  the  earth  and  the  world,  even  from  ever- 
lasting to  everlasting  thou  art  God.  Thou  turnest  man 
back  to  dust,  and  sayest,  Return,  ye  children  of  men. 
For  a  thousand  years  in  thy  sight  are  but  as  yesterday 
when  it  is  past,  and  as  a  watch  in  the  night  Thou 
carriest  them  away  as  with  a  flood ;  they  are  in  a  sleep : 
in  the  morning  they  are  like  grass  which  sprouteth 
afresh.  In  the  morning  it  bloometh  and  sprouteth 
afresh ;  in  the  evening  it  is  cut  down,  and  withereth. 
For  we  are  consumed  by  thine  anger,  and  in  thy  wrath 
are  we  confounded.  Thou  hast  set  our  iniquities  be- 
fore thee,  our  secret  sins  in  the  light  of  thy  coun- 
tenance. For  all  our  days  have  passed  away  in  thy 
wrath,  we  bring  our  years  to  an  end  like  a  sound. 
I'he  days  of  our  years  are  threescore  years  and  ten. 
or  even  by  reason  of  strength  fourscore  years ;  yet  is 
their  pride  but  travail  and  nothingness ;  for  it  is  soon 
gone  by,  and  we  fly  away.  Who  knoweth  the  power  of 
thine  anger,  and  thy  wrath  according  to  the  fear  that 
is  due  unto  thee?  So  teach  us  to  number  our  days, 
that  we  may  get  us  a  heart  of  wisdom.  Return, 
O  Lord:  how  long? — and  repent  thee  concerning  thy

servants.  O  satisfy  us  in  the  morning  with  thy  lov- 
ingkindness ;  that  we  may  exult  and  rejoice  all  our 
days.  Make  us  rejoice  according  to  the  days  wherein 
thou  hast  afflicted  us,  the  years  wherein  we  have  seen 
evil.  Let  thy  work  be  made  manifest  unto  thy  servants, 
and  thy  majesty  upon  their  children. 

And  let  the  pleasantness  of  the  Lord  our  God  be 
upon  us ;  and  establish  thou  the  work  of  our  hands 
upon  us ;  yea,  the  work  of  our  hands  estabHsh  thou  it. 

Psalm  xci. 

He  that  dwelleth  in  the  shelter  of  the  Most  High 
abideth  under  the  shadow  of  the  Almighty.  I  say 
of  the  Lord,  He  is  my  refuge  and  my  fortress ;  my 
God,  in  whom  I  trust. — For  he  shall  deliver  thee  from 
the  snare  of  the  fowler,  and  from  the  noisome  pesti- 
lence. He  shall  cover  thee  with  his  pinions,  and  under 
his  wings  shalt  thou  take  refuge :  his  truth  shall  be 
a  shield  and  a  buckler.  Thou  shalt  not  be  afraid  of 
the  terror  by  night,  nor  of  the  arrow  that  flieth  by 
day ;  of  the  pestilence  that  walketh  in  darkness,  nor  of 
the  plague  that  ravageth  at  noon  day.  A  thousand  may 
fall  at  thy  side,  and  ten  thousand  at  thy  right  hand ;  it 
shall  not  come  nigh  unto  thee.  Only  with  thine  eyes 
shalt  thou  look  on,  and  see  the  retribution  of  the 
wicked. — For  thou,  O  Lord,  art  my  refuge. — Thou 
hast  made  the  Most  High  thy  dwelling  place ;  there 
shall  no  evil  befall  thee,  neither  shall  any  scourge  come 
nigh  thy  tent.  For  he  shall  give  his  angels  charge  over 
thee,  to  keep  thee  in  all  thy  ways.  They  shall  bear 
thee  upon  their  hands,  lest  thou  strike  thy  foot  against 
a  stone.  Thou  shalt  tread  upon  the  lion  and  the 
adder ;  upon  the  young  lion  and  the  serpent  shalt 
jthou  trample. — Because  he  hath  set  his  love  upon  me.

therefore  will  I  deliver  him :  I  will  set  him  on  high,, 
])ecause  he  knoweth  my  name.  When  he  calleth  upon 
me,  I  will  answer  him ;  I  will  be  with  him  in  trouble : 
I  will  deliver  him  and  honor  him.  With  length  of  days 
will  I  satisfy  him,  and  will  let  him  see  my  salvation. 

Repeat  the  last  verse. 

Psalm  cxxxv. 

Praise  ye  the  Lord.  Praise  ye  the  name  of  the  Lord ; 
praise  him,  O  ye  servants  of  the  Lord:  ye  that  stand 
in  the  house  of  the  Lord,  in  the  courts  of  the  house 
of  our  God.  Praise  ye  the  Lord ;  for  the  Lord  is  good  : 
sing  praises  unto  his  name ;  for  it  is  pleasant.  For  the 
Lord  hath  chosen  Jacob  unto  himself,  and  Israel  for  his 
peculiar  treasure.  For  I  know  that  the  Lord  is  great, 
and  that  our  Lord  is  above  all  gods.  Whatsoever  the 
Lord  pleaseth,  that  doeth  he,  in  heaven  and  in  earth, 
in  the  seas  and  in  all  deeps.  He  causeth  vapors  to 
ascend  from  the  ends  of  the  earth;  he  maketh  light- 
nings for  the  rain;  he  bringeth  forth  the  wind  out  of 
his  treasuries.  It  is  he  who  smote  the  firstborn  of 
Egypt,  both  of  man  and  beast.  He  sent  signs  and 
ivonders  into  the  midst  of  thee,  O  Egypt,  upon  Pha- 
raoh, and  upon  all  his  servants.  It  is  he  who  smote 
great  nations,  and  slew  mighty  kings,  Sihon  king  of 
the  Amorites,  and  Og  king  of  Bashan,  and  all  the  king- 
doms of  Canaan:  and  gave  their  land  for  an  heri- 
tage, an  heritage  unto  Israel  his  people.  Thy  name, 
O  Lord,  endureth  for  ever ;  thy  memorial,  O  Lord, 
throughout  all  generations.  For  the  Lord  shall  judge 
his  people,  and  repent  himself  concerning  his  servants.

The  idols  of  the  nations  are  silver  and  gold,  the  work 
of  men's  hands.  They  have  mouths,  but  they  speak 
not ;  eyes  have  they,  but  they  see  not ;  they  have  ears, 
but  they  hear  not ;  neither  is  there  any  breath  in  their 
mouths.  They  that  make  them  shall  become  like  unto 
them ;  yea,  every  one  that  trusteth  in  them.  O  house 
of  Israel,  bless  ye  the  Lord :  O  house  of  Aaron,  bless 
ye  the  Lord :  O  house  of  Levi,  bless  ye  the  Lord :  ye 
that  fear  the  Lord,  bless  ye  the  Lord.  Blessed  be  the 
Lord  out  of  Zion,  who  dwelleth  at  Jerusalem.  Praise 
ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxxxvi. 

O  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord  ;  for  he  is  good :  for  his

The  sun  to  rule  by  day:  for  his  lovingkindness  en-

The  moon  and  stars  to  rule  by  night :  for  his  loving- 
kindness endureth  for  ever. 

To   him   that    smote    the    Egyptians    in    their   first- 
born: for  his  lovingkindness  endureth  for  ever. 

And     brought     out     Israel     from     among     them: 
for  his  lovingkindness  endureth  for  ever.

and  justice:  the  earth  is  full  of  the  lovingkindness  of 
the  Lord.  By  the  word  of  the  Lord  the  heavens  were 
made;  and  all  the  host  of  them  by  the  breath  of  his 
mouth.  He  gathereth  the  waters  of  the  sea  together 
as  a  heap :  he  layeth  up  the  floods  in  store-houses.  Let 
all  the  earth  fear  the  Lord :  let  all  the  inhabitants  of 
the  world  stand  in  awe  of  him.  For  he  spake,  and 
it  was ;  he  commanded,  and  it  stood  fast.  The  Lord 
hath  frustrated  the  design  of  the  nations ;  he  hath 
foiled  the  thoughts  of  the  peoples.  The  counsel  of  the 
Lord  standeth  fast  for  ever,  the  thoughts  of  his  heart  to 
all  generations.  Happy  is  the  nation  whose  god  is  the 
Lord ;  the  people  whom  he  hath  chosen  for  his  own 
inheritance.  The  Lord  looketh  down  from  heaven ; 
he  beholdeth  all  the  sons  of  men ;  from  the  place  of  his 
habitation  he  gazeth  upon  all  the  inhabitants  of  the 
earth ;  he  that  fashioneth  the  hearts  of  them  all,  that 
giveth  heed  to  all  their  works.  A  king  is  not  saved  by 
greatness  of  power:  a  mighty  man  is  not  delivered  by 
greatness  of  strength.  A  horse  is  a  vain  thing  for' 
safety :  neither  shall  he  rescue  any  by  his  great  power. 
Behold  the  eye  of  the  Lord  is  upon  them  that  fear  him, 
upon  them  that  hope  for  his  lovingkindness  to  deliver 
their  soul  from  death,  and  to  keep  them  alive  in  famine. 
Our  soul  waiteth  for  the  Lord :  he  is  our  help  and  our 
shield.  For  our  heart  shall  rejoice  in  him,  because  we 
have  trusted  in  his  holy  name.  Let  thy  lovingkind- 
ness, O  Lord,  be  upon  us,  according  as  we  have  hoped 
for  thee. 


Psalm  xcii. 

A  Psalm,  a  Song  for  the  Sabbath  Day.  It  is  a  good 
thing  to  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord,  and  to  sing  praises 
unto  thy  name,  O  Most  High  :  to  declare  thy  lovingkind-

ness  in  the  morning,  and  thy  faithfulness  every  night, 
with  an  instrument  of  ten  strings  and  with  a  harp, 
with  thoughtful  music  upon  the  lyre.     For  thou,  O 
Lord,  hast  made  me  rejoice  through  thy  work:    I  will 
exult  in  the  work  of  thy  hands.     How  great  are  thy 
works,  O  Lord :  thy  thoughts  are  very  deep.    A  brutish 
man  knoweth  it  not,  neither  doth  a  fool  understand 
this:  when  the  wicked  sprang  up  as  the  grass,  and  all 
the  workers  of   iniquity  flourished,  it  was  that  they 
might  be  destroyed  for  ever.     But  thou,  O  Lord,  art 
on   high    for   evermore.      For,   lo,    thine    enemies,    O 
Lord,    for,    lo,    thine    enemies    shall    perish;    all    the 
workers    of    iniquity    shall    be    scattered.      But    my 
horn    hast     thou    exalted,     like    that    of    the     wild- 
ox:    I   am   anointed   with    fresh   oil.      Mine   eye   also 
hath  seen  my  desire  on  mine  enemies ;  mine  ears  have 
heard   my   desire   of  them   that   rose   up  against  me, 
doers  of  evil.     The  righteous  shall  spring  up  like  a 
palm-tree ;  he  shall  grow  tall  like  a  cedar  in  Lebanon. 
Planted     in     the     house     of     the     Lord,     they     shall 
blossom  in  the  courts  of  our  God.     They  shall  still 
shoot  forth  in  old  age;  they  shall  be  full  of  sap  and 
green:  to  declare  that  the  Lord  is  upright:  he  is  my 
rock,  and  there  is  no  unrighteousness  in  him. 

Psalm  xciii. 

The  Lord  reigneth ;  he  hath  robed  him  in  majesty ; 
the  Lord  hath  robed  him,  yea,  he  hath  girded  himself 
with  strength:  the  world  also  is  set  firm,  that  it 
cannot  be  moved.  Thy  throne  is  set  firm  from  of 
old:  thou  art  from  everlasting.  The  streams  have 
lifted  up,  O  Lord,  the  streams  have  lifted  up 
their  voice;  the  streams  lift  up  their  roaring. 
Than  the  voices  of  many  waters,  mighty  waters, 
breakers  of  the  sea,  more  mighty  is  the  Lord  on  high.

33  MORNING  SERVICE 

Thy  testimonies  are  very  faithful:  hoUness  becometh 
thine  house,  O  Lord,  for  evermore. 


On  Weekdays  continue  here  from  p.  23. 

Let  the  glory  of  the  Lord  endure  for  ever;  let  the 
Lord  rejoice  in  his  works.  Let  the  name  of  the  Lord 
be  blessed  from  this  time  forth  and  for  evermore.  From 
the  rising  of  the  sun  unto  the  going  down  thereof  the 
Lord's  name  is  to  be  praised.  The  Lord  is  high  above 
all  nations,  and  his  glory  above  the  heavens.  Thy 
name,  O  Lord,  endureth  for  ever;  thy  memorial,  O 
Lord,  throughout  all  generations.  The  Lord  hath  es- 
tablished his  throne  in  the  heavens;  and  his  kingdom 
ruleth  over  all.  Let  the  heavens  rejoice,  and  let  the 
earth  be  glad ;  and  let  them  say  among  the  nations,  The 
Lord  reigneth.  The  Lord  reigneth;  the  Lord  hath 
reigned ;  the  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.  The 
Lord  is  King  for  ever  and  ever;  the  nations  are  per- 
ished  out  of  his  land.  The  Lord  hath  frustrated  the 
design  of  the  nations;  he  hath  foiled  the  thoughts  of 
the  peoples.  Many  are  the  thoughts  in  a  man's  heart ; 
but  the  counsel  of  the  Lord,  that  shall  stand.  The 
counsel  of  the  Lord  standeth  fast  for  ever,  the  thoughts 
of  his  heart  to  all  generations.  For  he  spake,  and  it 
was ;  he  commanded,  and  it  stood  fast.  For  the  Lord 
hath  chosen  Zion ;  he  hath  desired  it  for  his  habitation. 
For  the  Lord  hath  chosen  Jacob  unto  himself,  Israel 
for  his  peculiar  treasure.  For  the  Lord  will  not  cast 
off  his  people,  neither  will  he  forsake  his  inheritance. 
And  he,  being  merciful,    forgiveth   iniquity,   and   de-

stroyeth  not:  yea,  many  a  iime  ne  turnetfi  his  anger 
away,  and  doth  not  stir  up  all  his  wrath.  Save,  Lord : 
may  the  King  answer  us  on  the  day  when  we  call. 

Happy  are  they  that  dwell  in  thy  house :  they  will  be 
ever  praising  thee.      (Selah.) 

Happy  is  the  people,  that  is  in  such  a  case :  happy 
is  the  people,  whose  God  is  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxlv.     A  Psalm  of  Praise :  of  David. 

I  will  extol  thee,  my  God,  O  King;  and  I  will  bless 
thy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Every  day  will  I  bless  thee ;  and  I  will  praise  thy 
name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Great  is  the  Lord,  and  exceedingly  to  be  praised: 
and  his  greatness  is  unsearchable. 

One  generation  shall  laud  thy  works  to  another,  and 
shall  declare  thy  mighty  acts. 

On  the  majestic  glory  of  thy  splendor,  and  on  thy 
marvellous  deeds,  will  I  meditate. 

And  men  shall  speak  of  the  might  of  thy  awful  acts ; 
and  I  will  recount  thy  greatness. 

They  shall  pour  forth  the  fame  of  thy  great  good- 
ness and  shall  exult  in  thy  righteousness. 

The  Lord  is  gracious  and  merciful ;  slow  to  anger 
and  of  great  lovingkindness. 

The  Lord  is  good  to  all ;  and  his  tender  mercies  are 
over  all  his  works. 

All  thy  works  shall  give  thanks  unto  thee,  O  Lord ; 
and  thy  loving  ones  shall  bless  thee. 

They  shall  speak  of  the  glory  of  thy  kingdom,  and 
talk  of  thy  power.

35  MORNING  SERVICE 

To  make  known  to  the  sons  of  men  his  mighty  acts, 
and  the  majestic  glory  of  his  kingdom. 

Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  thy 
dominion  endureih  throughout  all  generations. 

The  Lord  upholdeth  all  that  fall,  and  raiseth  up  all 
those  that  are  bowed  down. 

The  eyes  of  all  wait  upon  thee ;  and  thou  givest 
them  their  food  in  due  season. 

Thou  openest  thine  hand,  and  satisfiest  every  living 
thing  with  favor. 

The  Lord  is  righteous  in  all  his  ways,  and  loving 
in  all  his  works. 

The  Lord  is  nigh  unto  all  them  that  call  upon  him, 
to  all  that  call  upon  him  in  truth. 

He  will  fulfil  the  desire  of  them  that  fear  him;  he 
also  will  hear  their  cry  and  will  save  them. 

The  Lord  guardeth  all  them  that  love  him;  but  all 
the  wicked  will  he  destroy. 

My  mouth  shall  speak  of  the  praise  of  the  Lord; 
and  let  all  flesh  bless  his  holy  name  for  ever  and 
ever. 

But  we  will  bless  the  Lord  from  this  time  forth  and 
for  evermore.    Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxlvi. 

Praise  ye  the  Lord.  Praise  the  Lord,  O  my  soul :  I 
will  praise  the  Lord,  while  I  live;  I  will  sing  praises 
unto  my  God  while  I  have  my  being.  Put  r>ot  your  trust

When  his  breath  goeth  forth,  he  returneth  to  his  earth ; 
in  that  very  day  his  designs  perish.  Happy  is  he  that 
hath  the  God  of  Jacob  for  his  help,  whose  hope  is  in 
the  L.ord,  his  God:  who  made  heaven  and  earth,  the 
sea,  and  all  that  is  therein;  who  keepeth  truth  for  ever; 
who  executeth  judgment  for  the  oppressed;  who  giveth 
food  to  the  hungry :  the  Lord  looseth  the  prisoners ;  the 
Lord  openeth  the  eyes  of  the  blind ;  the  Lord  raiseth  up 
them  that  are  bowed  down ;  the  Lord  loveth  the  right- 
eous; the  Lord  guardeth  the  strangers;  he  upholdeth 
the  fatherless  and  widow ;  but  the  way  of  the  wicked  he 
maketh  crooked.  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy 
God,  O  Zion,  unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the 
Lord. 

Psalm  cxlvii. 

Praise  ye  the  Lord ;  for  it  is  good  to  sing  praises 
unto  our  God ;  for  it  is  pleasant,  and  praise  is  seeml3^ 
The  Lord  doth  build  up  Jerusalem ;  he  gathereth 
together  the  outcasts  of  Israel.  He  healeth  the 
broken  in  heart,  and  bindeth  up  their  Avounds.  He 
counteth  the  number  of  the  stars;  he  calleth  them  all 
by  their  names.  Great  is  our  Lord,  and  mightv 
in  power;  his  understanding  is  infinite.  The  Lord 
upholdeth  the  meek ;  he  abaseth  the  wicked  to 
the  ground.  Sing  unto  the  Lord  with  thanksgiving; 
sing  praises  upon  the  lyre  unto  our  God :  who  cov- 
ereth  the  heaven  with  clouds,  wdio  prepareth  rain 
for  the  earth,  wdio  maketh  grass  to  sprout  upon  the 
mountains;    who    giveth    to    the    beast    its    food,

not  in  the  strength  of  the  horse,  he  taketh  no  pleas-

within  thee.  He  maketh  peace  in  thy  borders;  he 
satisfieth  thee  with  the  fat  of  wheat.  He  sendeth 
out  his  commandment  to  the  earth;  his  word  run-

scattereth  hoar  frost  like  ashes.  He  casteth  forth 
his  ice  like  morsels:  who  can  stand  before  his 
cold?  He  sendeth  out  his  word,  and  melteth  them: 
he  causeth  his  wind  to  blow,  and  the  waters  flow. 
He  declareth  his  words  unto  Jacob,  his  statutes  and 
his  judgments  unto  Israel.  He  hath  not  dealt  so 
with  any  nation:  and  as  for  his  judgments,  they 
do  not  knowjhem.     Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxlviii

all  his  angels;  praise  ye  him,  all  his  host.  Praise 
ye  him,  sun  and  moon:  praise  him,  all  ye  stars  of 
light.  Praise  him,  ye  heavens  of  heavens,  and  ye 
waters  that  are  above  the  heavens.  Let  them 
praise  the  name  of  the  Lord:  for  he  commanded, 
and  they  were  created.  He  hath  established  them 
for  ever  and  ever :  he  gave  a  decree  which  none  shall 
transgress.     Praise     the     Lord     from     the     earth,

ye  sea-monsters  and  all  deeps :  fire  and  hail,  snow 
and  smoke;  stormy  wind,  fulfilling  his  word:  moun- 
tains and  all  hills ;  fruit  trees  and  all  cedars :  wild 
beasts  and  all  cattle;  creeping  things  and  winged 
birds :  kings  of  the  earth  and  all  peoples ;  princes 
and  all  judges  of  the  earth:  both  young  men  and 
maidens ;  old  men  and  children :  let  them  praise 
the  name  of  the  Lord ;  for  his  name  alone  is  exalted : 
his  majesty  is  above  the  earth  and  heaven.  And 
he  hath  lifted  up  a  horn  for  his  people,  to  the  praise 
of  all  his  loving  ones :  even  of  the  children  of  Israel, 
the  people  near  unto  him :  praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxlix. 

Praise  ye  the  Lord.  Sing  unto  the  Lord  a  new 
song;  his  praise  in  the  assembly  of  those  that  love 
him.  Let  Israel  rejoice  in  his  Maker:  let  the  chil- 
dren of  Zion  be  glad  in  their  King.  Let  them  praise 
his  name  with  the  dance :  let  them  sing  praises  unto 
him  with  the  timbrel  and  lyre.  For  the  Lord  taketb 
pleasure  in  his  people :  he  adorneth  the  meek  with 
salvation.  Let  those  that  love  him  triumph  in 
glory :  let  them  exult  upon  their  beds.  High  praises 
of  God  are  m  their  throat,  and  a  two-edged  sword 
in  their  hand ;  to  execute  vengeance  upon  the  na- 
tions, and  punishments  upon  the  peoples :  to  bind 
their  kings  with  chains,  and  their  nobles  with  fet- 
ters of  iron;  to  execute  upon  them  the  judgment 
written :  this  is  an  honor  for  all  his  loving  ones. 
Praise  ye  the  Lord.

Psalm  cl. 
Praise  ye  the  Lord.  Praise  God  in  his  sanctuary: 
praise  him  in  the  firmament  of  his  power.  Praise 
him  for  his  mighty  acts :  praise  him  according  to 
his  abundant  greatness.  Praise  him  with  the  blast 
of  the  horn :  praise  him  with  the  harp  and  the  lyre. 
Praise  him  with  the  timbrel  and  dance:  praise  him 
with  stringed  instruments  and  the  pipe.  Praise 
him  with  the  clear-toned  cymbals;  praise  him  with 
the  loud-sounding  cymbals.  Let  everything  that 
hath  breath  praise  the  Lord :  praise  ye  the  Lord. 

The  last  verse  is  repeated. 

Blessed  be  the  Lord  for  evermore.  Amen,  and 
Amen.  Blessed  be  the  Lord  out  of  Zion,  who 
dwelleth  in  Jerusalem.  Praise  ye  the  Lord.  Blessed 
be  the  Lord  God,  the  God  of  Israel,  who  alone  doeth 
wondrous  things:  and  blessed  be  his  glorious  name 
for  ever;  and  let  the  whole  earth  be  filled  with 
his  glory.    Amen,  and  Amen.

1  Chron.  xxix.  10 — 13. 

And  David  blessed  the  Lord  in  the  presence  of  all 
the  congregation:  and  David  said,  Blessed  art  thou, 
O  Lord,  the  God  of  Israel  our  father,  from  everlast- 
ing to  everlasting.  Thine,  O  Lord,  is  the  greatness, 
and  the  power,  and  the  glory,  and  the  victory,  and 
the  majesty:  for  all  that  is  in  the  heaven  and 
in  the  earth  is  thine ;  thine,  O  Lord,  is  the  kingdom, 
and     the     supremacy     as     head     over     all.       Riches

and  honor  come  of  thee,  and  thou  rulest  over 
all;  and  in  thine  hand  are  might  and  power; 
and  in  thine  hand  it  is  to  make  great,  and 
to  give  strength  unto  all.  Now,  therefore,  our 
God,  we  give  thanks  unto  thee,  and  praise  thy 
glorious  name. 

Nehemiah  ix.  6 — 11. 

Thou  art  the  Lord,  even  thou  alone;  thou  hast 
made  the  heavens,  the  heaven  of  heavens,  and  all 
their  host,  the  earth  and  all  things  that  are  thereon, 
the  seas  and  all  that  is  in  them,  and  thou  givest 
life  to  them  all ;  and  the  host  of  heaven  worship 
thee.  Thou  art  the  Lord  the  God,  who  didst  choose 
Abram,  and  broughtest  him  forth  out  of  Ur  of  the 
Chaldees,  and  gavest  him  the  name  of  Abraham : 
and  foundest  his  heart  faithful  before  thee: 

And  thou  madest  a  covenant  with  him  to  give  the 
land  of  the  Canaanite,  the  Hittite,  the  Amorite,  and 
the  Perizzite,  and  the  Jebusite,  and  the  Girgashite, 
even  to  give  it  unto  his  seed,  and  hast  performed 
thy  words ;  for  thou  art  righteous.  And  thou  sawest 
the  affliction  of  our  fathers  in  Egypt,  and  heardest 
their  cry  by  the  Red  Sea;  and  shewedst  signs  and 
wonders  upon  Pharaoh,  and  on  all  his  servants,  and 
on  all  the  people  of  his  land ;  for  thou 
knewest  that  they  dealt  arrogantly  against  them; 
and   didst  make   thee   a   name,   as   it   is   this   day.

And  thou  didst  divide  the  sea  before  them,  so  that 
they  went  through  the  midst  of  the  sea  on  the  dry 
land;  and  their  pursuers  thou  didst  cast  into  the 
-depths,  as  a  stone  into  the  mighty  waters. 

Exod.  xiv.  30 — xv.  18. 

Thus  the  Lord  saved  Israel  that  day  out  of  the 
hand  of  the  Egyptians;  and  Israel  saw  the  Egyp- 
tians dead  upon  the  sea  shore.  And  Israel  saw  the 
great  power  which  the  Lord  put  forth  against  the 
Egyptians,  and  the  people  feared  the  Lord :  and  they 
believed  in  the  Lord,  and  in  Moses  his  servant. 

Then  sang  Moses  and  the  children  of  Israel  this 
song  unto  the  Lord,  and  spake,  saying :  I  will  sing 
unto  the  Lord,  for  he  hath  been  highly  exalted :  the 
horse  and  his  rider  hath  he  thrown  into  the  sea. 
The  Lord  is  my  strength  and  song,  and  he  is  be- 
come my  salvation:  this  is  my  God,  and  I  will 
glorify  him ;  my  father's  God,  and  I  will  exalt  him. 
The  Lord  is  a  man  of  war:  the  Lord  is  his  name. 
Pharaoh's  chariots  and  his  host  hath  he  cast  into 
the  sea:  and  his  chosen  captains  are  sunk  in  the 
Red  Sea.  The  floods  cover  them :  they  went  down 
into  the  depths  like  a  stone.  Thy  right  hand,  O 
Lord,  that  is  glorious  in  power,  thy  right  hand,  O 
Lord,  dasheth  in  pieces  the  enemy.  And  in  the 
greatness  of  thy  majesty  thou  overthrowest  them 
■that  rise  up  against  thee:  thou  sendest  forth  thy 
•vwrath,  it  consumeth  them  as  stubble.  And  with  the

blast  of  thy  nostrils  the  waters  were  piled  up,  the 
streams  stood  upright  as  an  heap ;  the  floods  were 
congealed  in  the  heart  of  the  sea.  The  enemy  said, 
I  will  pursue,  I  will  overtake,  I  will  divide  the  spoil: 
my  lust  shall  be  satisfied  upon  them;  I  will  draw  my 
sword,  my  hand  shall  destroy  them.  Thou  didst 
blow  with  thy  wind,  the  sea  covered  them :  they 
sank  as  lead  in  the  mighty  waters.  Who  is  like 
unto  thee,  O  Lord,  amongst  the  mighty  ones :  who 
is  like  unto  thee,  glorious  in  holiness,  revered  in 
praises,  doing  marvels?  Thou  stretchedst  out  thy 
right  hand,  the  earth  swallowed  them.  Thou  in 
thy  lovingkindness  hast  led  the  people  which  thou 
hast  redeemed :  thou  has  guided  them  in  thy 
strength  to  thy  holy  habitation.  The  peoples  have 
heard  it ;  they  tremble :  pangs  have  taken  hold  of 
the  inhabitants  of  Philistia.  Then  were  the  dukes 
of  Edom  confounded;  the  mighty  men  of  Moab, 
trembling  taketh  hold  of  them  :  all  the  inhabitants 
of  Canaan  are  melted  away.  Terror  and  dread 
falleth  upon  them  :  by  the  greatness  of  thine  arm 
they  are  as  still  as  a  stone;  till  thy  people  pass 
over,  O  Lord,  till  the  people  pass  over,  which  thou 
hast  acquired.  Thou  wilt  bring  them  in,  and  plant 
them  in  the  mountain  of  thine  inheritance,  the  place, 
O  Lord,  which  thou  hast  made  for  thee  to  dwell  in, 
the  sanctuary,  O  Lord,  which  thy  hands  have  estab- 
lished. The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.  The 
Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever. 

For  the  kingdom  is  the  Lord's:  and  he  is  ruler 
over    the    nations.       And     saviors     shall     come     up

Who  in  mercy  givest  light  to  the  earth  and  to 
them  that  dwell  thereon,  and  in  thy  goodness  re- 
newest  the  creation  every  day  continually.  How 
manifold  are  thy  works,  O  Lord!  In  wisdom  hast 
thou  made  them  all :  the  earth  is  full  of  thy  pos- 
sessions. O  King,  who  alone  wast  exalted  from 
aforetime,  praised,  glorified  and  extolled  from  days 
of  old ;  O  everlasting  God,  in  thine  abundant 
mercies,  have  mercy  upon  us,  Lord  of  our  strength, 
Rock  of  our  stronghold.  Shield  of  our  salvation,  thou 
Stronghold  of  ours! 

The  blessed  God,  great  in  knowledge,  prepared 
and  formed  the  rays  of  the  sun :  it  was  a  boon  he 
produced  as  a  glory  to  his  name :  he  set  the  lumin- 
aries round  about  his  strength.  The  chiefs  of  his 
hosts  are  holy  beings  that  exalt  the  Almighty,  and 
continually  declare  the  glory  of  God  and  his  holi-

The  name  of  the  Divine  King,  the  great,  mighty

give  thanks)  to  him  that  maketh  great  lights,  for 
his  lovingkindness  endureth  for  ever.  O  cause  a 
new  light  to  shine  upon  Zion,  and  may  we  all  be 
worthy  soon  to  enjoy  its  brightness.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  Creator  of  the  luminaries. 

With  abounding  love  hast  thou  loved  us,  O  Lord 
our  God,  with  great  and  exceeding  pity  hast  thou 
pitied  us.  O  our  Father,  our  King,  for  our  fathers' 
sake,  who  trusted  in  thee,  and  whom  thou  didst 
teach  the  statutes  of  life,  be  also  gracious  unto 
us  and  teach  us.  O  our  Father,  merciful  Father, 
ever  compassionate,  have  mercy  upon  us ;  O  put  it 
into  our  hearts  to  understand  and  to  discern,  to 
mark,  learn  and  teach,  to  heed,  to  do  and  to  fulfil 
in  love  all  the  words  of  instruction  in  thy  Law. 
Enlighten  our  eyes  in  thy  Law,  and  let  our  hearts 
cleave  to  thy  commandments,  and  unite  our  hearts 
to  love  and  fear  thy  name,  so  that  we  be  never  put 
to  shame.  Because  we  have  trusted  in  thy  holy, 
great  and  revered  name,  we  shall  rejoice  and  be 
glad  in  thy  salvation.  O  bring  us  in  peace  from  the 
four  corners  of  the  earth,  and  make  us  go  upright  to 
our  land ;  for  thou  art  a  God  who  worketh  salvation. 
Thou  hast  chosen  us  from  all  peoples  and  tongues, 
and  hast  brought  us  near  unto  thy  great  name  for  ever

52  MORNING  SERVICE 

Thou  hast  been  the  help  of  our  fathers  from  of 
old,  a  Shield  and  Saviour  to  their  children  after  them 
in  every  generation :  in  the  heights  of  the  universe 
is  thy  habitation,  and  thy  judgments  and  thy 
righteousness  reach  to  the  furthest  ends  of  the 
earth.  Happy  is  the  man  who  hearkeneth  unto  thy 
commandments,  and  layeth  up  thy  Law  and  thy 
word  in  his  heart.  True  it  is  that  thou  art  indeed 
the  Lord  of  thy  people,  and  a  mighty  King  to  plead 
their  cause.  True  it  is  that  thou  art  indeed  the 
first  and  thou  art  the  last,  and  beside  thee  we  have 
no  King,  Redeemer  and  Saviour.  From  Egypt  thou 
didst  redeem  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  and  from  the  house 
of  bondmen  thou  didst  deliver  us;  all  their  first  born 
thou  didst  slay,  but  thy  first-born  thou  didst  redeem  ; 
thou  didst  divide  the  Red  Sea,  and  drown  the  proud; 
but  thou  madest  the  beloved  to  pass  through,  whil-j 
the  waters  covered  their  adversaries,  not  one  of 
whom  was  left.  Wherefore  the  beloved  praised  and 
extolled  God,  and  offered  hymns,  songs,  praises, 
blessings  and  thanksgivings  to  the  King  and  God, 
who  liveth  and  endureth ;  who  is  high  and  exalted, 
great  and  revered ;  who  bringeth  low  the  haughty,  and 
raiseth  up  the  lowly,  leadeth  forth  the  prisoners, 
delivereth  the  meek,  helpeth  the  poor,  and  an- 
swereth  his  people  when  they  cry  unto  him ;  even 
praises  to  the  Most  High  God,  blessed  is  he,  and 
ever  to  be  blessed.  Moses  and  the  children  of  Israel 
sang  a  song  unto  thee  with  great  joy,  saying,  all  of 
them.

Who  is  like  unto  thee,  O  Lord,  among  the  mighty 
ones?  Who  is  like  unto  thee,  glorious  in  holiness, 
revered  in  praises,  doing  marvels? 

With  a  new  song  the  redeemed  people  offered 
praise  unto  thy  name  at  the  sea  shore :  they  ail 
gave  thanks  in  unison,  and  proclaimed  thy  sover- 
eignty, and  said. 

The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever. 

O  Rock  of  Israel,  arise  to  the  help  of  Israel,  and 
deliver,  according  to  thy  promise,  Judah  and  Israci. 
Our  Redeemer,  the  Lord  of  hosts  is  his  name,  the 
Holy  One  of  Israel.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who 
hast  redeemed  Israel. 

The  following  prayer   (Amidah)   to  "as  in  ancient  years,"  p. 
66  is  to  be  said  standing. 

O  Lord,  open  thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall 
declare  thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God 
of  our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac, 
and  God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  re- 
vered God,  the  most  high  God,  who  bestowest 
lovingkindnesses,  and  possessest  all  things; 
who  rememberest  the  pious  deeds  of  the  patri- 
archs, and  in  love  wilt  bring  a  redeemer  to 
their  children's  children  for  thy  name's  sake.

Hear  our  voice,  O  Lord  our  God;  spare  us

in  mourning  for  that  she  is  childless,  laid  waste  as 
to  her  dwellings,  despised  in  the  downfall  of  her 
glory,  and  desolate  through  the  loss  of  her  inhabi- 
tants :  she  sitteth  with  her  head  covered  like  a  bar- 
ren woman  who  hath  not  borne.  Legions  have  de- 
voured her;  worshippers  of  strange  gods  have  pos- 
sessed her:  they  have  put  thy  people  Israel  to  the 
sword,  and  in  wilfulness  have  slain  the  loving  ones 
of  the  Most  High.  Therefore  let  Zion  weep  bitterly, 
and  Jerusalem  give  forth  her  voice.  O  my  heart, 
my  heart !  how  it  grieveth  for  the  slain !  My  bowels, 
my  bowels  !  how  they  yearn  for  the  slain  !  For  thou, 
O  Lord,  didst  consume  her  with  fire;  and  with  fire 
thou  wilt  in  future  restore  her,  as  it  is  said,  As  for 
me,  I  will  be  unto  her,  saith  the  Lord,  a  wall  of  fire 
round  about,  and  I  will  be  a  glory  in  the  midst  of 
her.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  comfortest 
Zion  and  rebuildest  Jerusalem.

unto  thee  answer  us,  according  as  it  is  said,  And  it 
shall  come  to  pass  that,  before  they  call,  I  will  an- 
swer; while  they  are  yet  speaking,  I  will  hear;  for 
thou,  O  Lord,  art  he  who  answereth  in  time  of  trou- 
ble, who  delivereth  and  rescueth  in  all  times  of 
trouble     and     distress;     for     thou     hearkenest,     etc.

64  MORNING  <iKRVICE 

in  thy  world,  and  for  thy  people  Israel  thou  didst 
work  a  great  deliverance  and  redemption  as  at  this 
day.  And  thereupon  thy  children  came  into  the 
oracle  of  thy  house,  cleansed  thy  temple,  purified 
thy  sanctuary,  kindled  lights  in  thy  holy  courts,  and 
appointed  these  eight  days  of  Chanukah  in  order  to 
give  thanks  and  praises  unto  thy  great  name. 

On  Purim. 

In  the  days  of  Mordecai  and  Esther,  in  Shushan 
the  capital,  when  the  wicked  Haman  rose  up  against 
them,  and  sought  to  destroy,  to  slay  and  make  to 
perish  all  the  Jews,  both  young  and  old,  little  chil- 
dren and  women,  on  one  day,  on  the  thirteenth  day 
of  the  twelfth  month,  which  is  the  month  Adar, 
and  to  take  the  spoil  of  them  for  a  prey, — then  didst 
thou  in  thine  abundant  mercy  bring  his  counsel  to 
nought,  didst  frustrate  his  design,  and  return  his 
recompense  upon  his  own  head ;  and  they  hanged 
him  and  his  sons  upon  the  gallows. 

For  all  these  things  thy  name,  O  our  King, 
shall  be  continually  blessed  and  exalted  for 
ever  and  ever. 

During  the  Ten  Days  of  Penitence  say: — 
O  inscribe  all  the  children  of  thy  covenant  for  a 
happy  life. 

And  everything  that  liveth  shall  give  thanks 
unto  thee  for  ever,  and  shall  praise  thy  name 
in  truth,  O  God,  our  salvation  and  our  help. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  whose  name  is  All- 
good,  and  unto  whom  it  is  becoming  to  give 
thanks.

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  bless  us  with  the

kindness  and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Israel, 
thy  people.  Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of 
us  together,  with  the  light  of  thy  countenance; 
for  by  the  light  of  thy  countenance  thou  hast 
given  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  the  Law  of  life,  lov- 
ingkindness  and  righteousness,  blessing,  mercy, 
life  and  peace;  and  may  it  be  good  in  thy  sight 
to  bless  thy  people  Israel  at  all  times  and  in 
every  hour  with  thy  peace. 

During  the  Ten  Days  of  Penitence  say: — 

In  the  book  of  life,  blessing,  peace  and  good  sus- 
tenance may  we  be  remembered  and  inscribed  be- 
fore thee,  we  and  all  thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,

MORNING  SERVICE 


Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  blessest  thy 
people  Israel  with  peace. 

O  my  God !  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my 
lips  from  speaking  guile;  and  to  such  as  curse  me 
let  my  soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all 
as  the  dust.  Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,  and  let 
my  soul  pursue  thy  commandments.  If  any  design 
tvil  against  me,  speedily  make  their  counsel  of  none 
effect,  and  frustrate  their  designs.  Do  it  for  the 
sake  of  thy  name,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  right 
hand,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  holiness,  do  it  for  the 
sake  of  thy  Law.  In  order  that  thy  beloved  ones 
may  be  delivered,  O  save  with  thy  right  hand,  and 
answer  me.  Let  the  words  of  my  mouth  and  the 
meditation  of  my  heart  be  acceptable  before  thee, 
O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer.  He  who 
maketh  peace  in  his  high  places,  may  he  make  peace 
for  us  and  for  all  Israel,  and  say  ye.  Amen. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  that  the  temple  be  speedily  rebuilt  in 
our  days,  and  grant  our  portion  in  thy  Law.  And 
there  we  will  serve  thee  with  awe,  as  in  the  days 
of  old,  and  as  in  ancient  years.  Then  shall  the 
offering  of  Judah  and  Jerusalem  be  pleasant  unto 
the  Lord,  as  in  the  days  of  old,  and  as  in  ancient 
years.

Give  us  understanding,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  know  thy 
ways ;  circumcise  our  hearts  to  fear  thee,  and  forgive  us  so 
that  we  may  be  redeemed.  Keep  us  far  from  sorrow ;  satiato 
us  on  the  pastures  of  thy  land,  and  gather  our  scattered  ones 
from  the  four  corners  of  the  earth.  Let  them  that  go  astray 
be  judged  according  to  thy  will,  and  wave  thy  hand  over  the 
wicked.  Let  the  righteous  rejoice  in  the  rebuilding  of  thy 
city,  and  in  the  establishment  of  thy  temple,  and  in  the  flour- 
ishing of  the  horn  of  David  thy  servant,  and  in  the  clear- 
shining  light  of  the  son  of  Jesse,  thine  anointed.  Even  before 
we  call,  do  thou  answer.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who 
hearkenest  unto  prayer.

/I  MORNING  SERVICE 

not  thou  thy  tender  mercies  from  us,  O  Lord :  let  thy 
iovingkindness  and  thy  truth  continually  preserve  us. 
Save  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  and  gather  us  from  amongst 
the  nations,  to  give  thanks  unto  thy  holy  name,  and  to 
triumph  in  thy  praise.    If  thou  shouldst  mark  iniquities, 
O  Lord,  who  could  stand?     But  there  is  forgiveness     1 
with  thee,  that  thou  mayest  be  feared.     Not  according 
to  our  sins  wih  thou  deal  with  us,  nor  requite  us  ac- 
cording  to    our   iniquities.       If   our   iniquities   testify 
against  us,  work  thou,  O  Lord,  for  thy  name's  sake. 
Remember,  O  Lord,  thy  tender  mercies  and  thy  loving- 
kindnesses  ;  for  they  have  been  ever  of  old.     May  the 
Lord  answer  us  in  the  day  of  trouble,  the  name  of  the 
God  of  Jacob  set  us  up  on  high.     Save,  Lord :  may  the 
King  answer  us  on  the  day  when  we  call.    Our  Father, 
our  King,  be  gracious  unto  us  and  answer  us,  for  we 
have  no  good  works  of  our  own ;  deal  with  us  in  charity 
for  thy  name's  sake.     Our  Lord,  our  God,  hearken  to 
the  voice  of  our  supplications,  and  remember  unto  us 
the  covenant  of  our  fathers,  and  save  us  for  thy  name's 
sake.     And  now,  O  Lord  our  God,  that  hast  brought 
thy  people  forth  out  of  the  land  of  Egypt  with  a  mighty 
hand,  and  hast  made  thee  a  name  as  at  this  day ;  we 
have  sinned,  we  have  done  wickedly.    O  Lord,  accord- 
ing to  all  thy  righteous  acts,  let  thine  anger  and  thy 
fury,  I  pray  thee,  be  turned  away  from  thy  city  Jeru- 
salem, thy  holy  mountain;  because  for  our  sins  and 
for  the  iniquities  of  our  fathers,  Jerusalem  and  thy  peo- 
ple are  become  a  reproach  to  all  that  are  round  about 
us.  Now  therefore,  hearken,  O  our  God.  unto  the  prayer

of  thy  servant  and  to  his  supplications,  and  cause  thy 
face  to  shine  upon  thy  sanctuary  that  is  desolate,  for  the 
Lord's  sake. 

Incline  thine  ear,  O  my  God,  and  hear;  open  thine 
eyes,  and  behold  our  desolations,  and  the  city  which  is 
called  by  thy  name :  for  we  do  not  lay  our  supplications 
before  thee  because  of  our  righteous  acts,  but  because 
of  thine  abundant  mercies.    O  Lord,  hear ;  O  Lord  for- 
give ;  O  Lord,  hearken  and  do  ;  defer  not ;  for  thine  own 
sake,  O  my  God,  because  thy  city  and  thy  people  are 
called  by  thy  name.     O  our  Father,  merciful  Father, 
sliow  us  a  sign  for  good,  and  gather  our  scattered  ones 
from  the  four  corners  of  the  earth.    Let  all  the  nations 
perceive  and  know  that  thou  art  the  Lord  our  God. 
And  now,  O  Lord,  thou  art  our  Father;  we  are  the 
clay,  and  thou  art  our  potter,  yea,  we  are  all  the  work  of 
thy  hand.    Save  us  for  thy  name's  sake,  orr  Rock,  our 
King,  and  our  Redeemer.     Spare  thy  peojle,  O  Lord, 
and  give  not  thine  inheritance  over  to  reproach,  that  the 
nations  should  make  a  by-word  of  them.     Wherefore 
should  they  say  among  the  peoples.    Where  is  their 
God?    We  know  that  we  have  sinned,  and  there  is  none 
to  stand  up  in  our  behalf ;  let  thy  great  name  stand  for 
our  defence  in  time  of  trouble.    We  know  that  we  have 
RO  good  works  of  our  own ;  deal  with  us  in  charity  for 
thy  name's  sake.     As  a  father  hath  mercy  upon  his 
children,    so,    O    Lord,    have    mercy    upon    us,    and 
save    us    for    thy    name's    sake.      Have    pity    upon

der mercies ;  be  gracious  unto  us  and  answer  us,  for 
charity  is  thine,  O  Lord;  thou  doest  wondrous  things 
at  all  times. 

Look,  we  beseech  thee,  and  speedily  have  mercy  upon 
thy  people  for  thy  name's  sake  in  thine  abundant  mer- 
cies. O  Lord  our  God,  spare  and  be  merciful;  save 
the  sheep  of  thy  pasture;  let  not  wrath  rule  over  us, 
for  our  eyes  are  bent  upon  thee ;  save  us  for  thy  name's 
sake.  Have  mercy  upon  us  for  the  sake  of  thy  cove- 
nant; look,  and  answer  us  in  time  of  trouble,  for  salva-

forgiveness.  We  beseech  thee,  forgive,  O  good  and 
forgiving  God,  for  thou  art  a  gracious  and  merciful 
God  and  King. 

We  beseech  thee,  O  gracious  and  merciful  King,  re- 
member and  give  heed  to  the  Covenant  between  the 
Pieces  (with  Abraham),  and  let  the  binding  (upon  the 
altar)  of  (Isaac)  an  only  son  appear  before  thee,  to  the 
welfare  of  Israel.  Our  Father,  our  King,  be  gracious 
unto  us  and  answer  us,  for  we  are  called  by  thy  great 
name.  Thou  who  doest  wondrous  things  at  all  times, 
deal  with  us  according  to  thy  lovingkindness.  O  gra- 
cious and  merciful  Being,  look,  and  answer  us  in  time 
of  trouble,  for  salvation  is  thine,  O  Lord.  Our  Father, 
our  King,  our  Refuge,  deal  not  with  us  according  to  the 
evil  of  our  doings ;  remernber,  O  Lord,  thy  tender  mer- 
cies and  thy  lovingkindnesses ;  save  us  according  to  thy 
abundant  goodness,  and  have  pity  upon  us,  we  beseech 
thee,  for  we  have  no  other  God  beside  thee,  our  Rock.

Forsake  us  not,  O  Lord  our  God,  be  not  far  from  us ; 
for  our  soul  is  shrunken  by  reason  of  the  sword  and 
captivity  and  pestilence  and  plague,  and  of  every  trou- 
ble and  sorrow.  Deliver  us,  for  we  hope  in  thee ;  put  us 
not  to  shame,  O  Lord  our  God ;  make  thy  countenance 
to  shine  upon  us;  remember  unto  us  the  covenant  of 
our  fathers,  and  save  us  for  thy  name's  sake.  Look 
upon  our  troubles,  and  hear  the  voice  of  our  prayer, 
for  thou  hearest  the  prayer  of  every  mouth. 

Merciful  and  gracious  God!  Have  mercy  upon  us 
and  upon  all  thy  works,  for  there  is  none  like  unto  thee, 
O  Lord  our  God.  We  beseech  thee,  forgive  our  trans- 
gressions, O  our  Father,  our  King,  our  Rock  and  our 
Redeemer,  O  living  and  everlasting  God,  mighty  in 
strength,  loving  and  good  to  all  thy  works ;  for  thou 
art  the  Lord  our  God.  O  God,  who  art  slow  to  anger 
and  full  of  mercy,  deal  with  us  according  to  the  abun- 
dance of  thy  tender  mercies,  and  save  us  for  thy  name's 
sake.  Hear  our  prayer,  O  our  King,  and  deliver  us 
from  the  hand  of  our  enemies ;  hear  our  prayer,  O  our 
King,  and  deliver  us  from  all  trouble  and  sorrow.  Thou 
art  our  Father,  our  King,  and  we  are  called  by  thy 
name ;  desert  us  not.  Forsake  us  not,  our  Father,  and 
cast  us  not  off,  O  our  Creator,  and  forget  us  not,  O  our 
Maker,  for  thou  art  a  gracious  and  merciful  God  and 
King.

75  MORNING  SERVICE 

There  is  none  gracious  and  merciful  like  thee,  O 
Lord  our  God ;  there  is  none  like  thee,  O  God,  slow  to 
anger  and  abounding  in  lovingkindness  and  truth.  Save 
us  in  thine  abundant  mercies ;  from  fierceness  and  rage 
deliver  us.  Remember  thy  servants,  Abraham,  Isaac 
and  Jacob;  look  not  unto  our  stubbornness  and  our 
wickedness  and  our  sin.  Turn  from  thy  fierce  anger, 
and  repent  of  the  evil  against  thy  people.  Remove  from 
us  the  stroke  of  death,  for  thou  art  merciful,  for  such 
is  thy  way — showing  lovingkindness  freely  throughout 
all  generations.  Spare  thy  people,  O  Lord,  and  deliver 
us.  from  thy  wrath,  and  remove  from  us  the  stroke  of 
the  plague,  and  harsh  decrees,  for  thou  art  the  Guar- 
dian of  Israel.  Unto  thee,  O  Lord,  belongeth  right- 
eousness, but  unto  us  confusion  of  face.  How  may  we 
complain?  What  can  we  say,  what  can  we  speak,  or 
how  can  we  justify  ourselves?  We  will  search  our 
ways  and  try  them,  and  turn  again  to  thee ;  for  thy 
right  hand  is  stretched  out  to  receive  the  penitent.  Save, 
we  beseech  thee,  O  Lord ;  we  beseech  thee,  O  Lord, 
send  prosperity.  We  beseech  thee,  O  Lord,  answer  us 
on  the  day  when  we  call.  For  thee,  O  Lord,  we  wait ; 
for  thee,  O  Lord,  we  hopq ;  in  thee,  O  Lord,  we  trust ; 
be  riot  silent,  nor  let  us  be  oppressed ;  for  the  nations 
say.  Their  hope  is  lost.  Let  every  knee  and  all  that  is 
lofty  bow  down  to  thee  alone. 

O  thou,  who  openest  thy  hand  to  repentance,  to  re- 
ceive transgressors  and  sinners — our  soul  is  sore  vexed 
through  the  greatness  of  our  grief ;  forget  us  not  for

ever ;  arise  and  save  us,  for  we  trust  in  thee.  Our  Fa- 
ther, our  King,  though  we  be  without  righteousness  and 
good  deeds,  remember  unto  us  the  covenant  of  our  fa- 
thers, and  the  testimony  we  bear  every  day  that  the 
Lord  is  One.  Look  upon  our  affliction,  for  many  are 
our  griefs  and  the  sorrows  of  our  heart.  Have  pity 
upon  us,  O  Lord,  in  the  land  of  our  captivity,  and  pour 
not  out  thy  wrath  upon  us,  for  we  are  thy  people,  the 
children  of  thy  covenant.  O  God,  look  upon  our  sunken 
glory  among  the  nations,  and  the  abomination  in  which 
we  are  held  as  of  utter  defilement.  How  long  shall  thy 
strength  remain  in  captivity,  and  thy  glory  in  the  hand 
of  the  foe?  Arouse  thy  might  and  thy  zeal  against 
thine  enemies,  that  they  may  be  put  to  shame  and  bro- 
ken down  in  their  might.  O  let  not  our  travail  seem 
little  in  thy  sight.  Let  thy  tender  mercies  speedily  come 
to  meet  us  in  the  day  of  our  trouble ;  and  if  not  for 
our  sake,  do  it  for  thine  own  sake,  and  destroy  not  the 
remembrance  of  our  remnant ;  but  be  gracious  unto  a 
people,  who  in  constant  love  proclaim  the  unity  of  thy 
name  twice  every  day,  saying.  Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord 
our  God,  the  Lord  is  One. 

And  David  said  unto  Gad,  I  am  troubled  exceed- 
ingly ;  let  us  fall,  I  pray  thee,  into  the  hand  of  the  Lord, 
for  his  mercies  are  many;  but  let  me  not  fall  into  the 
hand  of  man. 

O  thou  who  art  merciful  and  gracious,  I  have 
sinned  before  thee.  O  Lord,  full  of  mercy, 
have  mercy  upon  me  and  receive  my  suppH- 
'catio"°

Psalm  vi. 

O  Lord,  rebuke  me  not  in  thine  anger:  nei- 
ther chasten  me  in  thy  hot  displeasure.  Be 
gracious  unto  me,  O  Lord;  for  I  am  withered 
away:  O  Lord,  heal  me;  for  my  bones  are 
troubled.  My  soul  also  is  sore  troubled:  and 
thou,  O  Lord,  how  long?  Return,  O  Lord,  de- 
liver my  soul :  save  me  for  thy  lovingkindness' 
sake.  For  in  death  there  is  no  remembrance  of 
thee :  in  the  grave  who  shall  give  thee  thanks  ? 
I  am  weary  with  my  groaning;  every  night  I 
make  my  bed  to  swim;  I  melt  away  my  couch 
with  my  tears.  Mine  eye  wasteth  away  because 
of  grief;  it  waxeth  old  because  of  all  mine  ad- 
versaries. Depart  from  me,  all  ye  workers  of 
iniquity;  for  the  Lord  hath  heard  the  voice  of 
my  weeping.  The  Lord  hath  heard  my  suppli- 
cation; the  Lord  will  receive  my  prayer.  All 
mine  enemies  shall  be  ashamed  and  sore 
troubled:  they  shall  turn  back,  they  shall  be 
ashamed  suddenly. 

On  Monday  and  Thursday  Mornings  the  following  is  added.

"O  Guardian  of  Israel,"^  p.  79. 

Reader  and  Cong. — O  Lord  God  of  Israel,  turn  from 
thy  fierce  wrath,  and  repent  of  the  evil  against  thy 
people. 

Cong. — Look  from  heaven  and  see  how  we  have 
become  a   scorn   and  a  derision  among  the  nations;

we  are  accounted  as  sheep  brought  to  the  slaughter, 
to  be  slain  and  destroyed,  or  to  be  smitten  and  re- 
proached. 

Cong,  and  Reader. — Yet,  despite  all  this,  we  have 
not  forgotten  thy  name :  we  beseech  thee,  forget  us  not. 

Cong. — Strangers  say,  There  is  no  hope  or  expect- 
ancy for  you.  Be  gracious  unto  a  people  that  trust  in 
thy  name.  O  thou  who  art  most  pure,  bring  our  sal- 
vation near.  We  are  weary,  and  no  rest  is  granted  us. 
Let  thy  tender  mercies  subdue  thine  anger  from  us. 

Cong,  and  Reader. — We  beseech  thee,  turn  from 
thy  wrath,  and  have  mercy  upon  the  treasured  people 
whom  thou  hast  chosen. 

Cong. — O  Lord,  spare  us  in  thy  tender  mercies,  and 
give  us  not  into  the  hands  of  the  cruel.  Wherefore 
should  the  nations  say.  Where  now  is  their  God  ?  For 
thine  own  sake  deal  kindly  with  us,  and  delay  not. 

Cong,  and  Reader. — We  beseech  thee,  turn  from  thy 
wrath,  and  have  mercy  upon  the  treasured  people  whom 
thou  hast  chosen. 

Cong. — Hear  our  voice,  and  be  gracious,  and  forsake 
us  not  in  the  hand  of  our  enemies  to  blot  out  our  name ; 
remember  what  thou  hast  sworn  to  our  fathers,  I  will 
multiply  your  seed  as  the  stars  of  heaven : — and  now 
we  are  left  a  few  out  of  many.

Cong,  and  Reader. — O  Lord  God  of  Israel,  turn  from 
thy  fierce  wrath,  and  repent  of  the  evil  against  thy 
people. 

O  Guardian  of  Israel,  guard  the  remnant  of  Israel, 
and  suffer  not  Israel  to  perish,  who  say,  Hear  O  Israel. 

O  Guardian  of  an  only  nation,  guard  the  remnant  of 
an  only  nation,  and  suffer  not  an  only  nation  to  perish, 
who  proclaim  the  unity  of  thy  name,  saying,  The  Lord 
our  God,  the  Lord  is  One. 

O  Guardian  of  a  holy  nation,  guard  the  remnant  of  a 
holy  nation,  and  suffer  not  a  holy  nation  to  perish,  who 
thrice  repeat  the  three-fold  sanctification  unto  the  Holy 
One. 

O  Thou  who  art  propitiated  by  prayers  for  mercy, 
and  art  conciliated  by  supplications,  be  thou  propitious 
and  reconciled  to  an  afflicted  generation;  for  there  is 
none  that  helpeth. 

Our  Father,  our  King,  be  gracious  unto  us,  and  an- 
swer us,  for  we  have  no  good  works  of  our  own ;  deal 
with  us  in  charity  and  lovingkindness,  and  save  us.

80  MORNING  SERVICE 

As  for  us,  we  know  not  what  to  do ;  but  our 
eyes  are  upon  thee.  Remember,  O  Lord,  thy 
tender  mercies  and  thy  lovingkindnesses ;  for 
they  have  been  ever  of  old.  Let  thy  lovingkind- 
ness,  O  Lord,  be  upon  us,  according  as  we  have 
waited  for  thee.  Remember  not  against  us  the 
iniquities  of  our  ancestors:  let  thy  tender  mer- 
cies speedily  come  to  meet  us ;  for  we  are 
brought  very  low.  Be  gracious  unto  us,  O 
Lord,  be  gracious  unto  us ;  for  we  are  sated  to 
the  full  with  contempt.  In  wrath  remember  to 
be  merciful.  For  he  knoweth  our  frame;  he 
remembereth  that  we  are  dust.  Help  us,  O  God 
of  our  salvation,  for  the  sake  of  the  glory  of 
thy  name ;  and  deliver  us,  and  pardon  our  sins, 
for  thy  name's  sake. 

Reader. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great  name 
in  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according  to  his 
will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during  your  life 
and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life  of  all  the 
house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a  near  time,  and 
say  ye,  Amen. 

Cong,  and  Reader. — Let  his  great  name  be  blessed 
for  ever  and  to  all  eternity. 

Reader. — Blessed,  praised  and  glorified,  exalted,  ex- 
tolled and  honored,  magnified  and  lauded  be  the  name 
of  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he ;  though  he  be  high 
above  all  the  blessings  and  hymns,  praises  and  consola- 
tions, which  are  uttered  in  the  world ;  and  say  ye, 
Amen.

up,  O  Lord,  and  thine  enemies  shall  be  scat- 
tered, and  they  that  hate  thee  shall  flee  before 
thee.  For  out  of  Zion  shall  go  forth  the  Law, 
and  the  word  of  the  Lord  from  Jerusalem. 

Blessed  be  he  who  in  his  holiness  gave  the 
Law  to  his  people  Israel. 

The  Reader  takes  the  Scroll  of  the  Law,  and  says: — 

Magnify  the  Lord  with  me,  and  let  us  exalt 
his  name  together. 


Reader  and  Cong. — Thine,  O  Lord,  is  the  great- 
ness, and  the  power,  and  the  glory,  and  the  victory, 
and  the  majesty:  for  all  that  is  in  the  heaven  and  in 
the  earth  is  thine;  thine,  O  Lord,  is  the  kingdom, 
and  the  supremacy  as  head  over  all.  Exalt  ye  the 
Lord  our  God,  and  worship  at  his  footstool:  holy 
is  he.  Exalt  ye  the  Lord  our  God,  and  worship  at 
his  holy  mount ;  for  the  Lord  our  God  is  holy. 


May  the  Father  of  mercy  have  mercy  upon  a  peo-

ber the  covenant  with  the  patriarchs,  deliver  our 
souls  from  evil  hours,  check  the  evil  inclination  in 
them  that  have  been  carried  by  him,  grant  us  of  his 
grace  an  everlasting  deliverance,  and  in  the  attrib- 
ute of  his  goodness  fulfil  our  *  desires  by  salvation 
and  mercy.

perfect,  restoring  the  soul :  the  testimony  of  the 
Lord  is  faithful,  making  wise  the  simple.  The  pre- 
cepts of  the  Lord  are  right,  rejoicing  the  heart:  the 
commandment  of  the  Lord  is  pure,  enlightening  the 
eyes.  The  Lord  will  give  strength  unto  his  peo- 
ple :  the  Lord  will  bless  his  people  with  peace.  As

tried :  he  is  a  shield  unto  all  them  that  trust  in  him.

people,  to  the  praise  of  all  his  loving  ones,  even  oi 
the  children  of  Israel,  the  people  near  unto  him. 
Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  xxiv. 

A  Psalm  of  David :  The  earth  is  the  Lord's  and 
the  fulness  thereof;  the  v^orld,  and  they  that  dwell 
therein.  For  it  is  he  that  hath  founded  it  upon  the 
seas,  and  established  it  upon  the  floods.  Who  may 
ascend  the  mountain  of  the  Lord?  And  who  may 
stand  in  his  holy  place?  He  that  hath  clean  hands 
and  a  pure  heart;  who  hath  not  set  his  desire  upon 
vanity,  and  hath  not  sworn  deceitfully.  He  shall 
receive  a  blessing  from  the  Lord,  and  righteousness 
from  the  God  of  his  salvation.  This  is  the  genera-' 
tion  of  them  that  seek  after  him,  that  seek  thy  face,  (O 
God  of)  Jacob!  (Selah.)  Lift  up  your  heads,  O 
ye  gates;  and  be  ye  lifted  up,  ye  everlasting  doors, 
that  the  King  of  glory  may  come  in.  Who,  then,  is 
the  King  of  glory?  The  Lord  strong  and  mighty, 
the  Lord  mighty  in  battle.  Lift  up  your  heads,  O 
ye  gates ;  yea,  lift  them  up,  ye  everlasting  doors, 
that  the  King  of  glory  may  come  in.  Who,  then,  is 
the  King  of  glory?  The  Lord  of  hosts,  he  is  the 
King  of  glory.  (Selah.)

%7  MORNING  SERVICE 

While  the  Scroll  of  the  Law  is  being  placed  in  the  Ark,  the 
following  to  "as  of  old"  is  said:^ 

And  when  it  rested,  he  said,  Return,  O  Lord, 
unto  the  ten  thousands  of  the  thousands  of  Israel. 
Arise,  O  Lord,  unto  thy  resting  place ;  thou,  and  the 
ark  of  thy  strength.  Let  thy  priests  be  clothed  with 
righteousness ;  and  let  thy  loving  ones  shout  for  joy. 
For  the  sake  of  David  thy  servant,  turn  not  away 
the  face  of  thine  anointed.  For  I  give  you  good  doc- 
trine ;  forsake  ye  not  my  Law.  It  is  a  tree  of  life  to 
them  that  grasp  it,  and  of  them  that  uphold  it  every 
one  is  rendered  happy.  Its  ways  are  ways  of  pleas- 
antness, and  all  its  paths  are  peace.  Turn  thou  us, 
unto  thee,  O  Lord,  and  we  shall  return :  renew  our 
days  as  of  old.  ' 


Happy  are  they  that  dwell  in  thy  house :  they  will 
be  ever  praising  thee.   (Selah.) 

Happy  is  the  people,  that  is  in  such  a  case :  happy 
is  the  people,  whose  God  is  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxlv.     A  Psalm  of  Praise :  of  David 

I  will  extol  thee,  my  God,  O  King;  and  I  will  bless 
thy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Every  day  will  I  bless  thee ;  and  I  will  praise  thy 
name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Great  is  the  Lord,  and  exceedingly  to  be  praised : 
and  his  greatness  is  unsearchable. 

One  generation  shall  laud  thy  works  to  another, 
and  shall  declare  thy  mighty  acts. 

On  the  majestic  glory  of  thy  grandeur,  and  on 
thy  marvellous  deeds,  will  I  meditate.

S^  MORNING  SERVICE 

And  men  shall  speak  of  the  might  of  thy  awful  acts; 
and  I  will  recount  thy  greatness. 

They  shall  pour  forth  the  fame  of  thy  great  good- 
ness, and  shall  exult  in  thy  righteousness. 

The  Lord  is  gracious  and  merciful ;  slow  to  anger 
and  of  great  lovingkindness. 

The  Lord  is  good  to  all;  and  his  tender  mercies 
are  over  all  his  works. 

All   thy   works   shall   give   thanks   unto   thee,   O 
Lord ;  and  thy  loving  ones  shall  bless  thee. 

They  shall  speak  of  the  glory  of  thy  kingdom, 
and  talk  of  thy  powder. 

To  make  known  to  the  sons  of  men  his  mighty 
acts,  and  the  majestic  glory  of  his  kingdom. 

Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  thy 
dominion  endureth  throughout  all  generations. 

The  Lord  upholdeth  all  that  fall,  and  raiseth  up  all 
those  that  are  bowed  down. 

The  eyes  of  all  wait  upon  thee;  and  thou  givest 
them  their  food  in  due  season. 

Thou    openest    thine    hand,    and    satisfiest    every 
living  thing  with  favor. 

The  Lord  is  righteous  in  all  his  ways,  and  loving 
in  all  his  works. 

The  Lord  is  nigh  unto  all  them  that  call  upon  him, 
to  all  that  call  upon  him  in  truth. 

He  will  fulfil  the  desire  of  them  that  fear  him; 
he   also   will   hear   their   cry,   and   will   save   them.

The  Lord  guardeth  all  them  that  love  him;  but  all 
the  w^icked  will  he  destroy^ 

My  mouth  shall  speak  of  the  praise  of  the  Lord; 
and  let  all  flesh  bless  his  holy  name  for  ever  and 
ever. 

But  we  will  bless  the  Lord  from  this  time  forth 
and  for  ever  more.    Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

On  the  following  days  Psalm  xx.  is  omitted:  New  Moon,  the 
day  before  Passover,  on  the  Fast  of  Ah,  the  day  before  the 
Fast  of  Atonement,  during  the  Feast  of  Dedication,  on 
Purim  and  Purim  Katon. 

Psalm  XX. 

For  the  Chief  Musician.  A  Psalm  of  David.  The 
Lord  answer  thee  in  the  day  of  trouble ;  the  name 
of  the  God  of  Jacob  set  thee  up  on  high ;  send  thee 
help  from  the  sanctuary,  and  uphold  thee  out  of 
Zion ;  remember  all  thy  offerings,  and  accept  thy 
burnt  sacrifice  (Selah)  ;  grant  thee  thy  hearths  de- 
sire, and  fulfil  all  thy  purpose.  We  will  exult  in  thy 
salvation,  and  in  the  name  of  our  God  we  will  set 
tip  our  banners :  the  Lord  fulfil  all  thy  petitions. 
Now  know  I  that  the  Lord  saveth  his  anointed ;  he 
will  answer  him  from  his  holy  heaven  with  the 
mighty  saving  acts  of  his  right  hand.  Some  trust 
in  chariots  and  some  in  horses:  but  we  will  make 
mention  of  the  name  of  the  Lord  our  God.  They 
are  bowed  down  and  fallen :  but  we  are  risen  and 
stand  upright.  Save,  Lord:  may  the  King  answer 
us  on  the  dav  when  we  call.

90  MORNING  SERVICE 

And  a  redeemer  shall  come  to  Zion  and  to  them 
that  turn  from  transgression  in  Jacob,  saith  the 
Lord.  And  as  for  me,  this  is  my  covenant  with 
them,  saith  the  Lord:  my  spirit  that  is  upon  thee, 
and  my  words  which  I  have  put  in  thy  mouth,  shall 
not  depart  out  of  thy  mouth,  nor  out  of  the  mouth 
of  thy  seed,  nor  out  of  the  mouth  of  thy  seed's  seed, 
saith  the  Lord,  from  henceforth  and  for  ever. 

But  thou  art  holy,  O  thou  that  dwellest  amid  the 
praises  of  Israel.     And  one  cried  unto  another,  and 
said,  Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the   Lord  of  hosts:  the 
whole  earth  is  full  of  his  glory.    *And  they  receive 
sanction  the  one  from  the  other,  and  say,  Holy  in 
the  highest  heavens,  the  place  of  his  divine  abode; 
holy  upon  earth,  the  work  of  his  might;  holy  for 
ever  and  to  all  eternity  is  the  Lord  of  hosts;  the 
whole  earth  is  full  of  the  radiance  of  his   glory. 
Then  a  wind  lifted  me  up,  and  I  heard  behind  me 
the  voice  of  a  great  rushing  (saying).  Blessed  be 
the   glory   of   the   Lord    from   his   place.      *Then   a 
wind  lifted  me  up,  and  I  heard  behind  me  the  voice 
of  a  great  rushing,  of  those  who  uttered  praises, 
and  said.  Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from  the 
region  of  his  divine  abode.     The  Lord  shall  reign 
for  ever  and  ever.    *The  kingdom  of  the  Lord  en- 
dureth   for   ever   and   to   all   eternity.      O   Lord,   the 
God  of  Abraham,  of  Isaac  and  of  Israel,  our  fathers, 
keep  this  for  ever  in  the  imagination  of  the  thoughts 
of  the  heart  of  thy  people,  and  direct  their  heart 
unto  thee.     And  he,  being  merciful,  forgiveth  iniquity 

*The  Chaldee  paraphrase  of  the  precediner  verse.

abounding  in  lovingkindness  to  all  them  that  call

planted  everlasting  life  in  our  midst  May  he  open

within  our  hearts,  that  we  may  do  his  will  and  serve 
him  with  a  perfect  heart,  that  we  may  not  labor 
in  vain,  nor  bring  forth  for  confusion.  May  it  be 
thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers, 
that  we  may  keep  thy  statutes  in  this  world,  and  be

And  they  that  know  thy  name  will  put  their  trust 
in  thee;  for  thou  hast  not  forsaken  them  that  seek 
thee,  Lord.  It  pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  righteous- 
ness' sake,  to  magnify  the  Law  and  to  make  it  hon- 
orable.

And  now,  I  pray  thee,  let  the  power  of  the  Lord 
be  great,  according  as  thou  hast  spoken.  Remem- 
ber, O  Lord,  thy  tender  mercies  and  thy  lovingkind-- 
ness ;  for  they  have  been  ever  of  old. 

Reader. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great 
name  in  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according 
to  his  will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during 
your  life  and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life 
of  all  the  house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a 
near  time,  and  say  ye,  Amen.

extolled  and  honored,  magnified  and  lauded  be  the 
name  of  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he;  though  he  be 
high  above  all  the  blessings  and  hymns,  praises  and 
consolations,  which  are  uttered  in  the  world;  and 
say  ye,  Amen.

Reader. — May  the  prayers  and  supplications  of  all 
Israel  be  accepted  by  their  Father  who  is  in  heaven ; 
and  say  ye,  Amen. 

Cong. — Let  the  name  of  the  Lord  be  blessed  from 
this  time  forth  and  for  evermore. 

Reader. — May  there  be  abundant  peace  from 
heaven,  and  life  for  us  and  for  all  Israel ;  and  say" 
ye,  Amen. 

Cong. — My  help  is  from  the  Lord,  who  made 
heaven  and  earth. 

Reader. — He  who  maketh  peace  in  his  high 
places,  may  he  make  peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel; 
and  say  ye.  Amen. 

It  is  our  duty  to  praise  the  Lord  of  all  things,  to 
ascribe  greatness  to  him  who  formed  the  world  in 
the  beginning,  since  he  hath  not  made  us  like  the 
nations  of  other  lands,  and  hath  not  placed  us  like  other 
families  of  the  earth,  since  he  hath  not  assigned 
unto  us  a  portion  as  unto  them,  nor  a  lot  as  unto 
all  their  multitude.  For  we  bend  the  knee  and 
offer  worship  and  thanks  before  the  supreme  King 
of  kings,  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he,  who  stretched 
forth  the  heavens  and  laid  the  foundations  of  the 
earth,  the  seat  of  whose  glory  is  in  the  heavens 
above,  and  the  abode  of  whose  might  is  in  the 
loftiest  heights.  He  is  our  God;  there  is  none  else: 
jn  truth  he  is  our  King ;  there  is  none  besides  him ; 
as  it  is  written  in  his  Law,  And  thou  shalt  know 
this  day,  and  lay  it  to  thine  heart,  that  the  Lord 
he  is  God  in  heaven  above  and  upon  the  earth  be- 
*^eath:  there  is  none  else.

We  therefore  hope  in  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  that 
we  may  speedily  behold  the  glory  of  thy  might, 
when  thou  wilt  remove  the  abominations  from  the 
earth,  and  the  idols  will  be  utterly  cut  off,  when  the 
world  will  be  perfected  under  the  kingdom  of  the 
Almighty,  and  all  the  children  of  flesh  will  call  upon 
thy  name,  when  thou  wilt  turn  unto  thyself  all  the 
wicked  of  the  earth.  Let  all  the  inhabitants  of  the 
world  perceive  and  know  that  unto  thee  every  knee 
must  bow,  ev^ery  tongue  must  swear.  Before  thee, 
O  Lord  our  God,  let  them  bow  and  fall ;  and  unto 
thy  glorious  name  let  them  give  honor;  let  them 
all  accept  the  yoke  of  thy  kingdom,  and  do  thou 
reign  over  them  speedily,  and  for  ever  and  ever. 
For  the  kingdom  is  thine,  and  to  all  eternity  thou 
Tvilt  reign  in  glory ;  as  it  is  written  in  thy  Law,  the  Lord 
shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.  And  it  is  said.  And 
the  Lord  shall  be  king  over  all  the  earth:  in  that 
day  shall  the  Lord  be  One,  and  his  name  One. 

The  following  Kaddish  is  said  by  a  Mourner. 

And  now,  I  pray  thee,  let  the  power  of  the  Lord 
bt  great,  according  as  thou  hast  spoken.  Remem- 
ber, O  Lord,  thy  tender  mercies  and  thy  loving- 
kindnesses  ;  for  they  have  been  ever  of  old. 

Mo ur?2^r.- -Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great 
name  In  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according 
to  his  will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during 
your  life  and  during  your  days,  and  during  the 
life  of  all  the  house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at 
a  near  time,  and  say  ye.  Amen.

Who  may  ascend  the  mountain  of  the  Lord?  And 
who  may  stand  in  his  holy  place?  He  that  hath 
clean  hands  and  a  pure  heart;  who  hath  not  set 
his  desire  upon  vanity,  and  hath  not  sworn  deceit- 
fully. He  shall  receive  a  blessing  from  the  Lord, 
and  righteousness  from  the  God  of  his  salvation. 
This  is  the  generation  of  them  that  seek  after  him, 
that  seek  thy  face,  (O  God  of)  Jacob !  (Selah.)  Lift 
up  your  heads,  O  ye  gates;  and  be  ye  lifted  up,  ye 
everlasting  doors,  that  the  King  of  glory  may  come 
in.  Who,  then,  is  the  King  of  glory?  The  Lord 
strong  and  mighty,  the  Lord  mighty  in  battle.  Lift 
up  your  heads,  O  ye  gates;  yea,  lift  them  up,  ye 
everlasting  doors,  that  the  King  of  glory  may  come 
in.  Who,  then,  is  the  King  of  glory?  The  Lord  of 
hosts,  he  is  the  King  of  glory.  (Selah.)

A  Song;  a  Psalm  of  the  Sons  of  Korah.  Great 
is  the  Lord,  and  highly  to  be  praised,  in  the  city 
of  our  God,  in  his  holy  mountain.  Beautiful  in 
elevation,  the  joy  of  the  whole  earth  is  mount  Zion, 
—at  the  sides  of  the  north,— the  city  of  the  great 
king.  God  hath  made  himself  known  in  her  palaces 
as  a  stronghold.  For,  lo,  the  kings  met  each  other, 
they  passed  on  together.  They  saw  it;  then  were 
they  amazed;  they  were  confounded,  they  hasted 
away.     Trembling  took  hold  of  them  there;  pangs

as  of  a  woman  in  travail.  With  an  east  wind  thou 
didst  break  the  ships  of  Tarshish.  As  we  have 
heard,  so  have  we  seen  in  the  city  of  the  Lord  of 
hosts,  in  the  city  of  our  God :  God  will  establish 
it  for  ever.  (Selah.)  We  thought  of  thy  loving- 
kindness,  O  God,  in  the  midst  of  thy  temple.  As 
is  thy  name,  O.  God,  so  is  thy  renown  unto  the  ends 
of  the  earth ;  thy  right  hand  is  full  of  righteousness. 
Let  mount  Zion  rejoice,  let  the  daughters  of  Judah 
be  glad,  because  of  thy  judgments.  Compass  ye 
Zion  and  go  round  about  her:  count  the  towers 
thereof.  Mark  ye  well  her  rampart,  traverse  her 
palaces;  that  ye  may  tell  a  later  generation,  that 
this  God  is  our  God  for  ever  and  ever:  he  will  be 
our  guide  even  unto  death.

in  the  Temple  used  to  say: — 


(Psalm  Ixxxii.) 

A  Psalm  of  Asaph.  God  standeth  in  the  con- 
gregation of  the  mighty;  he  judgeth  among  the 
judges.  How  long  will  ye  judge  unjustly,  and 
respect  the  persons  of  the  wicked  ?  (Selah.)  Judge 
the  lowly  and  fatherless:  do  justice  to  the  afflicted 
and  destitute.  Rescue  the  lowly  and  needy :  deliver 
them  out  of  the  hand  of  the  wicked.  They  knov/ 
not,  neither  do  they  understand;  they  walk  about 
in  darkness:  all  the  foundations  of  the  earth  are 
moved.     I  said.  Ye  are  gods,  and  all  of  you  sons

Psalm  for  the  Fourth  Day  of  the  Week. 
This  is  the  Fourth  Day  of  the  Week,  on  which  the  Levites 
in  the  Temple  used  to  say : — 

(Psalm  xciv.) 
O  God  of  vengeance,  Lord,  O  God  of  vengeance, 
shine  forth.  Lift  up  thyself,  thou  judge  of  the  earth: 
render  to  the  proud  their  desert.  Lord,  how  long  shall 
the  wicked,  how  long  shall  the  wicked  triumph  ?  They 
prate,  they  speak  arrogantly :  all  the  workers  of  iniquity 
are  boastful.  They  crush  thy  people,  O  Lord,  and  af- 
flict thine  heritage.  They  slay  the  widow  and  the  stran- 
ger, and  murder  the  fatherless.  And  they  say,  The 
Lord  will  not  see,  neither  will  the  God  of  Jacob  give 
heed.  Give  heed,  ye  brutish  among  the  people :  and  ye 
fools,  when  will  ye  be  wise  ?  He  that  planted  the  ear, 
shall  he  not  hear?  He  that  formed  the  eye,  shall  he 
not  see?  He  that  chasteneth  the  nations,  shall  not  he 
punish,  even  he  that  teacheth  man  knowledge?  The 
Lord  knoweth  the  thoughts  of  men,  that  they  are  van-  . 
ity.  Happy  is  the  man  whom  thou  chastenest,  O  Lord, 
and  teachest  out  of  thy  Law  ;  that  thou  mayest  give  him 
rest  from  the  days  of  evil,  until  the  pit  be  digged  for 
the  wicked.  For  the  Lord  will  not  cast  off  his  people, 
neither  will  he  forsake  his  inheritance.  For  judgment 
shall  return  unto  righteousness :  and  all  the  upright  in 
heart  shall  follow  it.    Who  will  rise  up  for  me  against

the  evil-doers,  who  will  stand  up  for  me  against  the 
workers  of  iniquity?  Unless  the  Lord  had  been  my 
help,  my  soul  had  soon  dwelt  in  silence.  When  I  say. 
My  foot  slippeth,  thy  lovingkindness,  O  Lord,  holdeth 
me  up.  Li  the  multitude  of  my  thoughts  within  me,  thy 
comforts  delight  my  soul.  Hath  the  tribunal  of  de- 
struction fellowship  with  thee,  which  frameth  mischief 
by  statute?  They  gather  themselves  together  against 
the  soul  of  the  righteous,  and  condemn  the  innocent 
blood.  But  the  Lord  is  become  my  stronghold ;  and  my 
God  the  rock  of  my  refuge.  And  he  bringeth  back 
upon  them  their  own  iniquity,  and  for  their  evil  shall 
cut  them  off ;  the  Lord  our  God  shall  cut  them  off. 

O  come,  let  us  exult  before  the  Lord :  let  us  shout 
for  joy  to  the  rock  of  our  salvation. 

Psalm  for  the  Fifth  Day  of  the  Week. 
This  is  the  Fifth  Day  of  the  Week,  on  which  the  Levites 
in  the  Temple  used  to  say : — 

(Psalm  Ixxxi.) 
To  the  Chief  Musician.  Set  to  the  Gittith.  A  Psalm 
of  Asaph.  Exult  aloud  unto  God  our  strength :  shout 
for  joy  unto  the  God  of  Jacob.  Raise  the  song,  and 
strike  the  timbrel,  the  pleasant  lyre  with  the  harp. 
Blow  the  horn  on  the  new  moon,  at  the  beginning  of 
the  month,  for  our  day  of  festival.  For  it  is  a  statute 
of  Israel,  a  decree  of  the  God  of  Jacob.  He  appointed 
it  in  Joseph  for  a  testimony,  when  he  went  forth  over 
the  land  of  Egypt:  where  I  heard  a  language  that  I 
knew  not.  I  removed  his  shoulder  from  the  burden : 
his  hands  were  freed  from  the  basket.    Thou  calledst  in

Meribah.  (Selah.)  Hear,  O  my  people,  and  I  will  tes- 
tify against  thee :  O  Israel,  if  thou  wilt  hearken  unto 
me.  There  shall  be  no  strange  god  in  thee ;  neither 
shalt  thou  worship  any  foreign  god.  I  am  the  Lord  thy 
God,  who  brought  thee  out  of  the  land  of  Egypt:  open 
wide  thy  mouth,  and  I  will  fill  it.  But  my  people  heark- 
ened not  to  my  voice ;  and  Israel  was  not  willing  to- 
wards me.  So  I  let  them  go  in  the  stubbornness  of 
their  heart,  that  they  might  walk  in  their  own  counsels. 
O  that  my  people  would  hearken  unto  me,  that  Israel 
would  walk  in  my  ways.  I  would  soon  subdue  their 
enemies-,  and  turn  my  hand  against  their  adversaries. 
The  haters  of  the  Lord  should  submit  themselves  unto 
him ;  so  that  their  time  might  endure  for  ever.  He 
would  feed  them  also  with  the  fat  of  wheat :  and  with 
honey  out  of  the  rock  would  I  satisfy  thee.

the  Lord  hath  robed  him,  yea,  he  hath  girded  himself

art  from  everlasting.  The  streams  have  lifted  up,  O 
Lord,  the  streams  have  lifted  up  their  voice:  the 
streams  lift  up  their  roaring.  Than  the  voices  of  many

mighty  is  the  Lord  on  high.     Thy  testimonies  are  very

faithful:  holiness  becometh  thine  house,  O  Lord,  for 
evermore. 

Oft  the  days  when  Tachanun  (p.  76  to  p.  80)  is  said,  the  fol- 
lowing is  added  after  the  Psalm  of  the  day: — 

Psalm  Ixxxiii. 
A  Song :  A  Psalm  of  Asaph.  O  God,  keep  not  thou 
silence:  hold  not  thy  peace,  and  be  not  still,  O  God. 
For,  lo,  thine  enemies  make  a  tumult :  and  they  that 
hate  thee  have  lifted  up  the  head.  They  take  crafty 
counsel  against  thy  people,  and  consult  together  against 
thy  hidden  ones.  They  have  said,  Come  and  let  us  cut 
them  off  from  being  a  nation ;  that  the  name  of  Israel 
may  be  remembered  no  more.  For  they  have  consulted 
together  with  one  consent ;  against  thee  do  they  make  a 
covenant.  The  tents  of  Edom  and  the  Ishmaelites; 
Moab  and  the  Hagarenes ;  Gebal,  and  Ammon,  and 
Amalek ;  Philistia  with  the  inhabitants  of  Tyre :  As- 
syria also  is  joined  with  them;  they  have  been  an  arm 
of  help  to  the  children  of  Lot.  (Selah.)  Do  thou  unto 
them  as  unto  Midian;  as  to  Sisera,  as  to  Jabin,  at  the 
brook  Kishon.  They  were  destroyed  at  Endor;  they 
became  as  dung  for  the  earth.  Make  their  nobles  like 
Oreb  and  Zeeb ;  yea,  all  their  princes  like  Zebah  and 
Zalmunna:  who  said,  Let  us  take  to  ourselves  in  pos- 
session the  habitations  of  God.  O  my  God,  make  them 
like  the  whirling  dust,  as  stubble  before  the  wind;  as 
the  fire  that  burneth  the  forest,  and  as  the  flame  that 
setteth  the  mountains  on  fire:  so  pursue  them  with  thy 
storm,  and  confound  them  with  thy  hurricane.  Fill  their 
faces  with  confusion;  that  they  may  seek  thy  name.

From    the    beginning    of   the   Month    of  Elul   until  Hoshanc 
Rabba,   the  following  Psalm  is  read  every  Morning 

and  Evening: —  ; 

Psalm  xxvii.  4| 

A  Psalm  of  David.  The  Lord  is  my  light  and  my 
salvation ;  whom  shall  I  fear  ?  The  Lord  is  the  strong- 
hold of  my  life;  of  whom  shall  I  be  afraid?  When 
evil-doers  drew  nigh  against  me  to  eat  up  my  flesh, 
even  my  adversaries  and  my  foes,  they  stumbled  and 
fell.  Though  an  host  should  encamp  against  me,  my 
heart  would  not  fear;  though  war  should  rise 
against  me,  even  then  would  I  be  confident.  One  thing 
have  I  asked  of  the  Lord,  that  will  I  seek  after :  that 

1  may  dwell  in  the  house  of  the  Lord  all  the  days  of 
my  life,  to  behold  the  pleasantness  of  the  Lord,  and  to 
inquire  m  his  temple.  For  in  the  day  of  trouble  he 
will  hide  me  in  his  pavilion :  in  the  shelter  of  his  tab- 
ernacle will  be  conceal  me ;  he  will  lift  me  up  upon  a 
rock.  And  now  shall  mine  head  be  lifted  up  above 
mine  enemies  round  about  me ;  and  I  will  offer  in  his 
tabernacle  sacrifices  of  joyful  shouting;  I  will  sing, 
yea,  I  will  sing  praises  unto  the  Lord.  Hear,  O  Lord, 
when  I  cry  with  my  voice ;  have  pity  upon  me,  and  an- 
swer me.  My  heart  saith  unto  thee,  (since  thou  hast 
said),  Seek  ye  my  face.  Thy  face,  Lord  will  I  seek. 
Hide  not  thy  face  from  me;  thrust  not  thy  servant 
away  in  anger:  thou  hast  been  my  help;  cast  me  not 
-off,  neither  forsake  me,  O  God  of  my  salvation.  For 
my  father  and  my  mother  have  forsaken  me,  but  the 
Lord  will  take  me  up.  Teach  me  thy  Vv^ay,  O  Lord; 
and  lead  me  on  an  even  path,  because  of  them  that  lie 
in  wait  for  me      Give  me  not  up  to  the  will  of  mine

In    some    Congregations    the   following   Psalm   is   said   daily 
before  "Blessed  he  he,"  etc.,  i>.   19. 

Psalm  XXX. 

A  Psalm ;  a  Song  at  the  Dedication  of  the  House ;  a 
Psalm  of  David.  I  will  extol  thee,  O  Lord;  for  thou  hast 
drawn  me  up,  and  hast  not  made  my  foes  to  rejoice  over  me, 
O  Lord,  my  God,  I  cried  unto  thee,  and  thou  didst  heal  me. 

0  Lord,  thou  broughtest  up  my  soul  from  the  grave;  thou 
hast  kept  me  alive,  that  I  should  not  go  down  to  the  pit. 
Sing  praise  unto  the  Lord,  O  ye  his  loving  ones,  and  give 
thanks  to  his  holy  name.  For  his  anger  is  bat  for  a  moment ; 
his  favor  is  for  a  lifetime:  weeping  may  tarry  for  the  night, 
but  joy  Cometh  in  the  morning.  As  for  me,  1  said  in  my 
prosperity  1  shall  never  be  moved.  Thou,  Lord,  of  thy  favor 
hadst  made  my  mountain  to  stand  strong;  thou  didst  hide  thy 
face;  I  was  confounded.  I  cried  unto  thee,  O  Lord;  and 
unto  the  Lord  1  made  supplication :  What  profit  is  there  in 
my  blood  if  1  go  down  to  the  pit?  Can  the  dust  give  thanks 
to  thee?  Can  it  declare  thy  truth?  Hear,  O  Lord,  and  be 
gracious  unto  me ;  Lord,  be  thou  my  helper.  Thou  hast  turned 
for  me  my  mourning  into  dancing;  thou  hast  loosed  my  sack- 
cloth, and  girded  me  with  gladness :  to  the  end  that  my  glory 
may  sing  praise  to  thee,  and  not  be  silent:  O  Lord  my  God, 

1  will  give  thanks  unto  thee  for  ever. 

Kaddish  to   he  said  after  reading  Lessons  from  the   Works 
of  the  Rabhis: — 

Reader. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great  name 
in  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according  to  his 
will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during  your  life 
and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life  of  all  the 
house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a  near  time,  and

105  MORNING  SERVICE 

Trust  in  the  Lord,  and  do  good ;  dwell  in  the  land,  and 
feed  upon  faithfulness.  Behold,  God  is  my  salvation ;  I 
will  trust  and  will  not  be  afraid :  for  Jah  the  Lord  is  my 
strength  and  song,  and  he  is  become  my  salvation. — O 
Sovereign  of  the  universe,  in  thy  holy  words  it  is  writ- 
ten, saying.  He  that  trusteth  in  the  Lord,  lovingkind- 
iress  shall  compass  him  about ;  and  it  is  written,  And 
thou  givest  life  to  them  all.  O  Lord  God  of  truth, 
vouchsafe  blessing  and  prosperity  upon  all  the  work 
of  my  hands,  for  I  trust  in  thee  that  thou  wilt  so  bless 
me  through  my  occupation  and  calling,  that  I  may  be 
enabled  to  support  myself  and  the  members  of  my 
household  with  ease  and  not  with  pain,  by  lawful  and 
not  by  forbidden  means,  unto  life  and  peace.  In  me  also 
let  the  scripture  be  fulfilled,  Cast  thy  burden  upon  the 
Lord,  and  he  shall  sustain  thee.    Amen ! 


THE  TEN  COMMANDMENTS. 
Exodus  XX.  1 — 17. 
And  God  spake  all  these  words,  saying. 

1.  I  am  the  Lord  thy  God,  who  brought  thee  out  of 
the  land  of  Egypt,  out  of  the  house  of  bondage. 

2.  Thou  shalt  have  no  other  gods  before  me.  Thou 
shalt  not  make  unto  thee  a  graven  image ;  nor  the  form 
of  anything  that  is  in  heaven  above,  or  that  is  in  the 
earth  beneath,  or  that  is  in  the  water  under  the  earth ; 
thou  shalt  not  bow  down  thyself  unto  them,  nor  serve 
them:  for  I  the  Lord  thy  God  am.  a  jealous  God,  visit- 
xag  the   iniquity   of   the    fathers   upon   the   children,

them  that  hate  me :  and  shewing  lovingkindness  to  the 
thousandth  generation,  unto  them  that  love  me  and 
keep  my  commandments. 

3.  Thou  shalt  not  take  the  name  of  the  Lord  thy 
God  in  vain ;  for  the  Lord  will  not  hold  him  guiltless 
that  taketh  his  name  in  vain. 

'  4.  Remember  the  sabbath  day  to  keep  it  holy.  Six 
days  shalt  thou  labor,  and  do  all  thy  work:  but  the 
seventh  day  is  a  sabbath  unto  the  Lord  thy  God:  in  it 
thou  shalt  not  do  any  work,  thou,  nor  thy  son,  nor  th}'- 
daughter,  thy  manservant,  nor  thy  maidservant,  nor 
thy  cattle,  nor  thy  stranger  that  is  within  thy  gates :  for 
in  six  days  the  Lord  made  heaven  and  earth,  the  sea 
and  all  that  is  therein,  and  rested  on  the  seventh  day: 
wherefore  the  Lord  blessed  the  sabbath  day  and  hal- 
lowed it. 

.5.  Honor  thy  father  and  thy  mother:  that  thy  days 
may  be  long  upon  the  land  which  the  Lord  thy  God 
giveth  thee. 

.  6.     Thou  shalt  not  murder. 

7.  Thou  shalt  not  commit  adultery. 

8.  Thou  shalt  not  steal. 

9.  Thou  shalt  not  bear  false  witness  against  thy 
neighbnijL

THIRTEEN  PRINCIPLES  OF  THE  FAITH,* 

1.  I  beheve  with  perfect  faith  that  the  Creator, 
blessed  be  his  name,  is  the  Author  and  Guide  of  every- 
thing that  has  been  created,  and  that  he  alone  has  made, 
does  make,  and  will  make  all  things. 

2.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  the  Creator, 
blessed  be  his  name,  is  a  Unity,  and  that  there  is  no 
unity  in  any  manner  like  unto  his,  and  that  he  alone  is 
our  God,  who  was,  is,  and  will  be. 

3.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  the  Creator, 
blessed  be  his  name,  is  not  a  body,  and  that  he  is  free 
from  all  the  accidents  of  matter,  and  that  he  has  not 
any  form  whatsoever. 

4.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  the  Creator, 
blessed  be  his  name,  is  the  first  and  the  last. 

5.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  to  the  Creator, 
blessed  be  his  name,  and  to  him  alone,  it  is  right  to 
pray,  and  that  it  is  not  right  to  pray  to  any  being  be- 
sides him. 


*These  Articles  of  the  Jewish  Creed  were  formulated  by 
Moses  Maimonides  in  the  12th  century  c  L.

6.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  all  the  v^ords 
of  the  prophets  are  true. 

7 .  I  believe  v\^ith  perfect  faith  that  the  prophecy 
of  Moses  our  teacher,  peace  be  unto  him,  w^as  true, 
and  that  he  v^as  the  chief  of  the  prophets,  both  of 
those  that  preceded  and  of  those  that  followed  him. 

8.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  the  wholj 
Law,  now  in  our  possession,  is  the  same  that  wa« 
given  to  Moses  our  teacher,  peace  be  unto  him. 

9.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  this  Law  will 
not  be  changed,  and  that  there  will  never  be  any 
other  law  from  the  Creator,  blessed  be  his  name. 

10.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  the  Creator, 
blessed  be  his  name,  knows  every  deed  of  the  chil- 
dren of  men,  and  all  their  thoughts,  as  it  is  said, 
It  is  he  that  fashioneth  the  hearts  of  them  all,  that 
giveth  heed  to  all  their  deeds. 

n.  I  believe  with  perfect  faith  that  the  Creator, 
blessed  be  his  name,  rewards  those  that  keep  his 
commandments,  and  punishes  those  that  transgress 
them.

Every  day  w^ill   I  bless  thee;  and  I   w^ill  praise

Great  is  the  Lord,  and  exceedingly  to  be  praised : 
and  his  greatness  is  unsearchable. 

One  generation  shall  laud  thy  works  to  another, 
and  shall  declare  thy  mighty  acts. 

On  the   majestic  glory  of  thy  splendor,  and  on 
thy  marvellous  deeds,  w^ill  I  meditate. 

And  men  shall  speak  of  the  might  of  thy  av^ful

Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  thy 
dominion  endureth  throughout  all  generations. 

The    Lord    upholdeth    all    that    fall,    and   raiseth 
up  all  those  that  are  bowed  down. 

The  eyes  of  all  wait  upon  thee;  and  thou  givest 
them  their  food  in  due  season. 

Thou    openest    thine   hand,    and    satlsfiest   every 
living  thing  with  favor.

The  Lord  is  righteous  in  all  his  ways,  and  loving 
in  all  his  works. 

The  Lord  is  nigh  unto  all  them  that  call  upon 
him,  to  all  that  call  upon  him  in  truth. 

He  will  fulfil  the  desire  of  them  that  fear  him;

the  wicked  will  he  destroy. 

My  mouth  shall  speak  of  the  praise  of  the  Lord; 
and  let  all  flesh  bless  his  holy  name  for  ever  and

life  of  all  the  house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at 
a  near  time,  and  say  ye,  Amen.

O  Lord,  open  thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth 
shall  declare  thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God 
of  our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac, 
and  God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  re- 
vered God,  the  most  high  God,  who  bestowest 
lovingkindnesses,  and  possessest  all  things; 
who  rememberest  the  pious  deeds  of  the  patri- 
archs, and  in  love  wilt  bring  a  redeemer  to  their 
children's  children  for  thy  name's  sake.

Remember  us  unto  life,  O  King,  who  delightest  in 
life,  and  inscribe  us  in  the  book  of  life,  for  thine 
own  sake,  O  living  God. 

O  King,  Helper,  Savior  and  Shield.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  the  Shield  of  Abraham. 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  thou

Therefore  let  Zion  weep  bitterly,  and  Jerusalem  give 
forth  her  voice.  O  my  heart,  my  heart !  how  it  grieveth 
for  the  slain  !  My  bowels,  my  bowels !  how  they  yearn

we  will  serve  thee  with  awe,  as  in  the  days  of  old,  and

Tachaniin    is    omitted,    the   Reader,   immediately    after   the

And  David  said  unto  Gad,  I  am  troubled  exceed- 
ingly; let  us  fall,  I  pray  thee,  into  the  hand  of  the 
Lord,  for  his  mercies  are  many;  but  let  me  not  fall 
into  the  hand  of  man. 

O  thou  who  art  merciful  and  gracious,  I  have 
sinned  before  thee.  O  Lord,  full  of  mercy, 
have  mercy  upon  me  and  receive  my  supplica- 
tions. 

Psalm  vi. 

O  Lord,  rebuke  me  not  in  thine  anger: 
neither  chasten  me  in  thy  hot  displeasure.  Be 
gracious  unto  me,  O  Lord;  for  I  am  withered 
away:  O  Lord,  heal  me;  for  my  bones  are 
troubled.  My  soul  also  is  sore  troubled:  and 
thou,  O  Lord,  how  long?  Return,  O  Lord,  de- 
liver my  soul;  save  me  for  thy  lovingkindness'

O  Guardian  of  Israel,  guard  the  remnant  of  Israel,

O  Thou  who  art  propitiated  by  prayers  for  mercy, 
and  art  conciliated  by  supplications,  be  thou  propitious

Our  Father,  our  King,  be  gracious  unto  us  and 
answer  us,  for  we  have  no  good  works  of  our  own ; 
deal  with  us  in  charity  and  lovingkindness,  and  save  us. 

As  for  us,  we  know  not  what  to  do ;  but  our 
eyes  are  upon  thee.  Remember,  O  Lord,  thy 
tender  mercies  and  thy  lovingkindnesses ;  for 
they  have  been  ever  of  old.  Let  thy  lovingkind- 
ness, O  Lord,  be  upon  us,  according  as  we  have 
waited  for  thee.  Remember  not  against  us  the 
iniquities  of  our  ancestors:  let  thy  tender  mer- 
cies speedily  come  to  meet  us;  for  we  are 
brought  very  low.  Be  gracious  unto  us,  O 
Lord,  be  gracious  unto  us ;  for  we  are  sated  to 
the  full  with  contempt.  In  wrath  remember  to 
be  merciful.  For  he  knoweth  our  frame ;  he  re- 
membereth  that  we  are  dust.  Help  u  >,  O  God 
of  our  salvation,  for  the  sake  of  the  glory  of 
thy  name ;  and  deliver  us,  and  pardon  our  sins, 
for  thy  name's  sake.

It  is  our  duty  to  praise  the  Lord  of  all  things,  to 
ascribe  greatness  to  him  who  formed  the  world  in  the 
beginning,  since  he  hath  not  made  us  like  the  nations 
of  other  lands,  and  hath  not  placed  us  like  other  fam- 
ilies of  the  earth,  since  he  hath  not  assigned  unto  us  a 
portion  as  unto  them,  nor  a  lot  as  unto  all  their  multi- 
tude. For  we  bend  the  knee  and  offer  worship  and 
thanks  before  the  supreme  King  of  kings,  the  Holy 
One,  blessed  be  he,  who  stretched  forth  the  heavens 
and  laid  the  foundations  of  the  earth,  the  seat  of 
whose  glory  is  in  the  heavens  above,  and  the  abode  of 
whose  might  is  in  the  loftiest  heights.  He  is  our 
God;  there  is  none  else:  in  truth  he  is  our  King; 
there  is  none  besides  him ;  as  it  is  written  in  his  Law, 
And  thou  shalt  know  this  day,  and  lay  it  to  thine  hearty

that  the  Lord  he  is  God  in  heaven  above  and  upon 
the  earth  beneath:  there  is  none  else. 

We  therefore  hope  in  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  that  we 
may  speedily  behold  the  glory  of  thy  might,  when  thou 
wilt  remove  the  abominations  from  the  earth,  and  the 
idols  will  be  utterly  cut  off,  when  the  world  will  be 
perfected  under  the  kingdom  of  the  Almighty,  and  all 
the  children  of  flesh  will  call  upon  thy  name,  when  thou 
wilt  turn  unto  thyself  all  the  wicked  of  the  earth. 
Let  all  the  inhabitants  of  the  world  perceive  and  know 
that  unto  thee  every  knee  must  bow,  every  tongue  must 
swear.  Before  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  let  them  bow 
and  fall;  and  unto  thy  glorious  name  let  them  give 
honor;  let  them  all  accept  the  yoke  of  thy  kingdom, 
and  do  thou  reign  over  them  speedily,  and  for  ever 
and  ever.  For  the  kingdom  is  thine,  and  to  all  eternity 
thou  wilt  reign  in  glory;  as  it  is  written  in  thy  Law, 
The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.  And  it  is 
said,  And  the  Lord  shall  be  king  over  all  the  earth:

And  it  shall  come  to  pass,  if  ye  shall  hearken, 
diligently  unto  my  commandments,  which  I 
command  you  this  day,  to  love  the  Lord  your 
God,  and  to  serve  him  with  all  your  heart  and 
with  all  your  soul,  that  I  will  give  the  rain  of 
your  land  in  its  season,  the  former  rain  and  the 
latter  rain,  that  thou  mayest  gather  in  thy  corn, 
and  thy  wine,  and  thine  oil.  And  I  will  give 
grass  in  thy  field  for  thy  cattle,  and  thou  shalt 
eat  and  be  satisfied.  Take  heed  to  yourselves, 
lest  your  heart  be  deceived,  and  ye  turn  aside, 
and  serve  other  gods,  and  worship  them;  and 
the  anger  of  the  Lord  be  kindled  against  you, 
and  he  shut  up  the  heaven,  that  there  be  no 
rain,  and  that  the  land  yield  not  her  fruit ;  and 
ye  perish  quickly  from  ofif  the  good  land  which 
the  Lord  giveth  you.  Therefore  shall  ye  lay 
up  these  my  words  in  your  heart  and  in  your 
soul;  and  ye  shall  bind  them  for  a  sign  upon

Speak  unto  the  children  of  Israel,  and  bid  them 
that  they  make  them  a  fringe  upon  the  corners 
of  their  garments  throughout  their  genera-

member all  the  commandments  of  the  Lord,

God,  and  there  is  none  beside  him,  and  that  w- e,

ones;  the  God,  who  on  our  behalf  dealt  out  pun-

past  finding  out,  yea,  and  wonders  without

not  suffered  our  feet  to  be  moved;  who  made 
us  tread  upon  the  high  places  of  our  enemies, 
and  exalted  our  horn  over  all  them  that  hated 
us ;  who  wrought  for  us  miracles  and  vengeance 
upon  Pharaoh,  signs  and  wonders  in  the  land 
of  the  children  of  Ham;  who  in  his  wrath

everlasting  freedom;  w^ho  made  his  children 
pass  between  the  divisions  of  the  Red  Sea,  but 
sank  their  pursuers  and  their  enemies  in  the 
depths.  Then  his  children  beheld  his  might; 
they  praised  and  gave  thanks  unto  his  name, 
and  willingly  accepted  his  sovereignty.  Moses 
and  the  children  of  Israel  sang  a  song  unto 
thee  with  great  joy,  saying,  all  of  them, 

Who  is  like  unto  thee,  O  Lord,  among  the 
mighty  ones?  Who  is  like  unto  thee,  glorious 
in  holiness,  revered  in  praises,  doing  wonders  ? 

Thy  children  beheld  thy  sovereign  power,  as  thou 
didst  cleave  the  sea  before  Moses :  they  exclaimed, 
This  is  my  God!  and  said,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for 
ever  and  ever. 

And  it  is  said,  For  the  Lord  hath  delivered  Jacob, 
and  redeemed  him  from  the  hand  of  him  that  was 
stronger  than  he.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  hast 
redeemed  Israel. 

Cause  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  lie  down  in  peace,  and 
raise  us  up,  O  our  King,  unto  life.  Spread  over  us  the 
tabernacle  of  thy  peace ;  direct  us  aright  through  thine 
own  good  counsel;  save  us  for  thy  name's  sake;  be 
thou  a  shield  about  us ;  remove  from  us  every  enemy, 
pestilence,  sword,  famine  and  sorrow ;  remove  also  the 
adversary  from  before  us  and  from  behind  us.  O 
shelter     us     beneath     the     shadow     of     thy     wings;

for  thou,  O  God,  art  our  Guardian  and  our  Deliverer ; 
yea,  thou,  O  God,  art  a  gracious  and  merciful  King; 
and  guard  our  going  out  and  our  coming  in  unto  life 
and  unto  peace  from  this  time  forth  and  for  evermore. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  guardest  thy  people 
Israel  for  ever. 

Blessed  be  the  Lord  for  evermore.  Amen 
and  Amen.  Blessed  be  the  Lord  out  of  Zion, 
who  dv^elleth  in  Jerusalem.  Praise  ye  the 
Lord.  Blessed  be  the  Lord  God,  the  God  of 
Zsrael,  who  alone  doeth  wondrous  things:  and 
blessed  be  his  glorious  name  for  ever;  and  let 
the  whole  earth  be  filled  with  his  glory.  Amen

the  name  of  the  Lord  be  blessed  from  this  time 
forth  and  for  evermore.  For  the  Lord  will  not 
forsake  his  people  for  his  great  name's  sake; 
because  it  hath  pleased  him  to  make  you  a  peo- 
ple unto  himself.  And  when  all  the  people  saw 
it,  they  fell  on  their  faces:  and  they  said,  The 
Lord,  he  is  God ;  the  Lord,  he  is  God.  And  the 
Lord  shall  be  King  over  all  the  earth:  in 
that  day  shall  the  Lord  be  One,  and  his  name

One.  Let  thy  lovingkindness,  O  Lord,  be  upon 
us,  according  as  we  have  hoped  for  thee.  Save 
us,  O  God  of  our  salvation,  and  gather  us  and 
deHver  us  from  the  nations,  to  give  thanks  unto 
thy  holy  name,  and  to  triumph  in  thy  praise. 
All  nations  whom  thou  hast  made  shall  come 
and  worship  before  thee,  O  Lord;  and  they 
shall  glorify  thy  name:  for  thou  art  great  and 
doest  marvellous  things;  thou  art  God  alone. 
But  we  are  thy  people  and  the  sheep  of  thy  pas- 
ture; we  will  give  thanks  unto  thee  for  ever: 
we  will  recount  thy  praise  to  all  generations. 

Blessed  be  the  Lord  by  day;  blessed  be  the 
Lord  by  night;  blessed  be  the  Lord  when  we 
lie  down ;  blessed  be  the  Lord  when  we  rise  up. 
For  in  thy  hand  are  the  souls  of  the  living  and 
the  dead,  as  it  is  said.  In  his  hand  is  the  soul  of 
every  living  thing,  and  the  spirit  of  all  human 
flesh.  Into  thy  hand  I  commend  my  spirit ;  thou 
hast  redeemed  me,  O  Lord  God  of  truth.  Our 
God  who  art  in  heaven,  assert  the  unity  of  thy 
name,  and  establish  thy  kingdom  continually, 
and  reign  over  us  for  ever  and  ever. 

May  our  eyes  behold,  our  hearts  rejoice,  and 
our  souls  be  glad  in  thy  true  salvation,  when  it

benefits,  which  are  wrought  at  all  times,  even-

thanks.

149  EVENING   SERVICE 

Reader. — May  there  be  abundant  peace  from 
heaven,  and  Hf e  for  us  and  for  all  Israel ;  and  say  ye, 
Amen. 

Cong. — My  help  is  from  the  Lord,  who  made  heaven 
and  earth. 

Reader. — He  who  maketh  peace  in  his  high  places, 
may  he  make  peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel ;  and  say 
ye,  Amen. 

It  is  our  duty  to  praise  the  Lord  of  all  things,  to 
ascribe  greatness  to  him  who  formed  the  world  in  the 
beginning,  since  he  hath  not  made  us  like  the  nations 
of  other  lands,  and  hath  not  placed  us  like  other  fam- 
ilies of  the  earth,  since  he  hath  not  assigned  unto  us 
a  portion  as  unto  them,  nor  a  lot  as  unto  all  their  multi- 
tude. For  we  bend  the  knee  and  offer  worship  and 
thanks  before  the  supreme  King  of  kings,  the  Holy 
One,  blessed  be  he,  who  stretched  forth  the  heavens  and 
laid  the  foundations  of  the  earth,  the  seat  of  whose 
glory  is  in  the  heavens  above,  and  the  abode  of  whose 
might  is  in  the  loftiest  heights.  He  is  our  God  ;  there  is 
none  else :  in  truth  he  i?  our  King ;  there  is  none  besides 
him ;  as  it  is  written  in  his  Law,  And  thou  shalt  know 
this  day,  and  lay  it  to  thine  heart,  that  the  Lord  he  i? 
God  in  heaven  above  and  upon  the  earth  beneath :  there 
is  none  else. 

We  therefore  hope  in  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  that  we 
may  speedily  behold  the  glory  of  thy  might,  when  thou 
wilt  remove  the  abominations  from  the  earth,  and  the 
idols  will  be  utterly  cut  off,  when  the  world  will  be 
perfected  under  the  kingdom  of  the  Almighty,  and  all 
the  children  of  flesh  will  call  upon  thy  name,  when  thou 
wilt  turn  unto  thyself  all  the  wicked  of  the  earth. 
Let  all  the  inhabitants  of  the  world  perceive  and  know

house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a  near  time,  and 
say  ye.  Amen. 

Cong,  and  Mourner. — Let  his  great  name  be  blessed

INAUGURATION  OF  THE  SABBATH. 

On  Kindling  the  Sabbath  lights  say: — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments, 
and  commanded  us  to  kindle  the  Sabbath  light. 


Psalm   xcv. 

O  come,  let  us  exult  before  the  Lord:  let  us  shout 
for  joy  to  the  rock  of  our  salvation.  Let  us  come 
before  his  presence  with  thanksgiving:  let  us  shout 
for  joy  unto  him  with  psalms.  For  the  Lord  is  a 
great  God,  and  a  great  king  above  all  gods.  In  his 
hand  are  the  deep  places  of  the  earth;  the  heights  of 
the  mountains  are  his  also.  The  sea  is  his,  and  he 
made  it ;  and  his  hands  formed  the  dry  land.  O  come, 
let  us  worship  and  bow  down ;  let  us  kneel  before 
the  Lord  our  maker.  For  he  is  our  God,  and  we  are 
Ihe  people  of  his  pasture,  and  the  sheep  of  his  hand. 
To-day,  oh  that  ye  would  hearken  to  his  voice! 
Harden  not  your  hearts  as  at  Meribah,  as  in  the  day 
of  Massah  in  the  wilderness :  when  your  fathers 
\empted  me,  and  proved  me,  although  they  had  seen 
my  work.  Forty  years  long  was  I  wearied  with  that 
generation,  and  said.  It  is  a  people  that  do  err  in 
their  heart,  and  they  have  not  known  my  ways. 
Wherefore  I  sware  in  my  wrath,  that  they  should  not 
enter  into  my  rest. 

Psalm  xcvi. 

O  sing  unto  the  Lord  a  new  song :  sing  unto  the  Lord, 
all  the  earth.     Sing  unto  the  Lord,  bless  his  name:

'152  INAUGURATION  OF  THE  SABBATH 

proclaim  his  salvation  from  day  to  day.  Recount  his 
glory  among  the  nations,  his  wondrous  works  amons: 
all  the  peoples.  For  great  is  the  Lord,  and  exceedingly 
to  be  praised :  he  is  to  be  revered  above  all  gods.  For 
all  the  gods  of  the  peoples  are  things  of  nought:  but 
the  Lord  made  the  heavens.  Splendor  and  majesty- 
are  before  him:  strength  and  beauty  are  in  his  sanc- 
tuary. Give  unto  the  Lord,  ye  families  of  the  peo- 
ples, give  unto  the  Lord  glory  and  strength.  Give 
unto  the  Lord  the  glory  due  unto  his  name:  take 
an  offering,  and  come  into  his  courts.  O  worship 
the  Lord  in  the  beauty  of  holiness ;  tremble  befoi-e 
him,  all  the  earth.  Say  among  the  nations,  the 
Lord  reigneth :  the  world  also  is  set  firm  that  it 
cannot  be  moved :  he  shall  judge  the  peoples  with 
equity.  Let  the  heavens  rejoice,  and  let  the  earth 
be  glad ;  let  the  sea  roar,  and  the  fulness  thereof ; 
let  the  plain  triumph  and  all  that  is  therein ;  yea, 
let  all  the  trees  of  the  forest  exult  before  the  Lord, 
for  he  Cometh;  for  he  cometh  to  judge  the  earth: 
he  will  judge  the  world  with  righteousness,  and 
the  peoples  in  his  faithfulness. 
Psalm  xcvii. 
The  Lord  reigneth ;  let  the  earth  be  glad ;  let  the 
many  coast-lands  rejoice.  Clouds  and  darkness  are 
round  about  him:  righteousness  and  justice  are  the 
foundation  of  his  throne.  A  fire  goeth  before  him, 
and  burneth  up  his  adversaries  round  about.  His 
lightnings  illumine  the  world :  the  earth  seeth  and 
trembleth.  The  mountains  melt  like  wax  before 
the  Lord,  before  the  Lord  of  the  whole  earth.    The

heavens  declare  his  righteousness,  and  all  the  pet>- 
ples  behold  his  glory.  Ashamed  are  all  they  that 
serve  graven  images,  that  make  their  boast  of  things 
of  nought :  worship  him,  all  ye  gods.  Zion  heareth 
and  rejoiceth,  and  the  daughters  of  Judah  are  glad 
because  of  thy  judgments,  O  Lord.  For  thou.  Lord, 
art  most  high  above  all  the  earth :  thou  art  exalted 
far  above  all  gods.  O  ye  that  love  the  Lord,  hate 
evil :  he  preserveth  the  souls  of  his  loving  ones ; 
he  delivereth  them  out  of  the  hand  of  the  wicked. 
Light  is  sown  for  the  righteous,  and  joy  for  the 
upright  in  heart.  Rejoice  in  the  Lord,  ye  righteous; 
and  give  thanks  to  his  holy  name. 

Psalm  xcviii. 

A  Psalm.  O  sing  unto  the  Lord  a  new  song; 
for  he  hath  done  marvellous  things:  his  right  hand, 
and  his  holy  arm,  hath  wrought  salvation  for  him. 
The  Lord  hath  made  known  his  salvation:  his 
righteousness  hath  he  revealed  in  the  sight  of  the 
nations.  He  hath  remembered  his  lovingkindness 
and  his  faithfulness  toward  the  house  of  Israel :  all 
the  ends  of  the  earth  have  seen  the  salvation  of 
our  God.  Shout  for  joy  unto  the  Lord,  all  the  earth ; 
break  forth  into  exultation,  and  sing  praises.  Sing 
praises  unto  the  Lord  with  the  lyre;  with  the  lyre 
and  the  sound  of  song.  With  trumpets  and  the 
sound  of  the  horn  shout  for  joy  before  the  king, 
the  Lord.  Let  the  sea  roar,  and  the  fulness  thereof, 
the  world,  and  they  that  dwell  therein.  Let  the 
streams  clap  their  hands,  let  the  mountains  exult 
together  before  the  Lord,  for  he  cometh  to  judge 
the  earth:  he  will  judge  the  world  with  righteous- 
ness, and  the  peoples  with  equity.

Psalm  xcix. 

^  The  Lord  reigneth ;  let  the  peoples  tremble :  he 
sitteth  above  the  cherubim;  let  the  earth  be  moved. 
The  Lord  is  great  in  Zion ;  and  he  is  high  above  all 
the  peoples.  Let  them  give  thanks  to  thy  great 
and  dreaded  name ;  holy  is  he.  And  the  strength  of 
a  king  that  loveth  justice  thou  didst  establish  in 
equity;  thou  hast  wrought  justice  and  righteous- 
ness in  Jacob.  Exalt  ye  the  Lord  our  God,  and 
worship  at  his  footstool :  holy  is  he.  Moses  and 
Aaron  among  his  priests,  and  Samuel  among  them 
that  call  upon  his  name,  called  upon  the  Lord, 
and  he  answered  them.  He  spake  unto  them  in 
the  pillar  of  cloud :  they  kept  his  testimonies,  and 
the  statute  that  he  gave  them.  Thou  didst  answer 
them,  O  Lord  our  God :  a  forgiving  God  thou  wast 
unto  them,  though  thou  tookest  vengeance  on  their 
misdeeds.  Exalt  ye  the  Lord  our  God,  and  worship 
at  his  holy  mount;  for  the  Lord  our  God  is  holy. 

Psalm  xxix. 


A  Psalm  of  David.  Give  unto  the  Lord,  O  ye 
children  of  the  mighty,  give  unto  the  Lord  glory 
and  strength.  Give  unto  the  Lord  the  glory  due 
unto  his  name ;  worship  the  Lord  in  the  beauty  of 
holiness.  The  voice  of  the  Lord  is  upon  the  waters: 
the  God  of  glory  thundereth,  even  the  Lord  upon  the 
^reat  waters  The  voice  of  the  Lord  is  powerful ; 
the  voice  of  the  Lord  is  full  of  majesty.  The  voice  of 
the  Lord  breaketh  the  cedars ;  yea,  the  Lord  breaketh 
in  pieces  the  cedars  of  Lebanon.  He  maketh  them 
also  to  skip  like  a  calf;  Lebanon  and  Sirion  like  a 
young  wild-ox.  The  voice  of  the  Lord  cleaveth 
flames  of  fire;  the  voice  of  the  Lord  maketh  the

wilderness  to  tremble;  the  Lord  maketh  tremble 
the  wilderness  of  Kadesh.  The  voice  of  the  Lord 
maketh  the  hinds  to  travail,  and  strippeth  the  for- 
ests bare :  and  in  his  temple  everything  saith,  Glory. 
The  Lord  sat  as  king  at  the  flood ;  yea,  the  Lord 
sitteth  as  king  for  ever.  The  Lord  will  give  strength 
unto  his  people ;  the  Lord  will  bless  his  people  with 
peace. 

*Come,  my  friend,  to  meet  the  bride;  let  us  wel- 
come the  presence  of  the  Sabbath. 

"Observe"  and  "Remember  the  Sabbath  day,"  the 
only  God  caused  us  to  hear  in  a  single  utterance  rf 
the  Lord  is  One,  and  his  nam.e  is  One  to  his  renown 
and  his  glory  and  his  praise.     Come,  etc. 

Come,  let  us  go  to  meet  the  Sabbath,  for  it  is  a 
well-spring  of  blessing;  from  the  beginning,  from 
of  old  it  was  ordained, — last  in  production,  first  in 
thought.     Come,  etc. 

O  sanctuary  of  our  King,  O  regal  city,  arise,  go 
forth  from  thy  overthrow ;  long  enough  hast  thou 
dwelt  in  the  valley  of  weeping;  verily  He  will  have 
compassion  upon  thee.    Come,  etc. 

Shake  thyself  from  the  dust,  arise,  put  on  the 
garments  of  thy  glory,  O  my  people!  Through  the 
son  of  Jesse,  the  Bethlehemite,  draw  Thou  nigh  unto 
my  soul,  redeem  it.     Come,  etc. 

Arouse  thyself,  arouse  thyself,  for  thy  light  is 
come :  arise,  shine ;  awake,  awake ;  give  forth  a  song; 
the  glory  of  the  Lord  is  revealed  upon  thee.  Come, 
etc. 

*  In  this  poem,  written  in  the  form  of  an  acrostic  on  the 
name  of  the  author,  R.  Shelomo  Halevi  (Alkabets),  the  Sab- 
bath is  personified  as  a  bride,  whose  visit  to  the  faithful  of 
Israel  it  is  desired  to  honor  and  welcome.

156  INAUGURATION   OF  THE  SABBATH 

Be  not  ashamed,  neither  be  confounded.  Why- 
art  thou  cast  down,  and  why  art  thou  disquieted? 
The  poor  of  my  people  trust  in  thee,  and  the  city 
shall  be  builded  on  her  own  mound.     Come,  etc. 

And  they  that  spoil  thee  shall  be  a  spoil,  and  all 
hat  would  swallow  thee  shall  be  far  away:  thy 
God  shall  rejoice  over  thee,  as  a  bridegroom  re- 
joiceth  over  his  bride.     Come,  etc. 

Thou  shalt  spread  abroad  on  the  right  hand  and 
on  the  left,  and  thou  shalt  reverence  the  Lord. 
Through  the  offspring  of  Perez  we  also  shall  re- 
joice and  be  glad.     Come,  etc. 

Come  in  peace,  thou  crown  of  thy  husband,  with 
rejoicing  and  with  cheerfulness,  in  the  midst  of  the 
faithful  of  the  chosen  people :  come,  O  bride ;  come, 
O  bride. 

Come,  my  friend,  to  meet  the  bride;  let  us  wel- 
come the  presence  of  the  Sabbath. 

Psalm  xcii. 


A  Psalm,  A  Song  for  the  Sabbath  Day.  It  is 
a  good  thing  to  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord,  and  to 
sing  praises  unto  thy  name,  O  Most  High:  to  de- 
clare thy  lovingkindness  in  the  morning,  and  thy 
faithfulness  every  night,  with  an  instrument  of  ten 
strings  and  with  a  harp,  with  thoughtful  music 
upon  the  lyre.  For  thou,  O  Lord,  hast  made  me 
rejoice  through  thy  work:  I  will  exult  in  the  works  of 
thy  hands.  How  great  are  thy  works,  O  Lord:  thy 
thoughts  are  very  deep.  A  brutish  man  knoweth  it 
not,  neither  doth  a  fool  understand  this:  when  the 
wicked  sprang  up  as  the  grass,  and  all  the  workers 
of  iniquity  flourished,  it  was  that  they  might  be  de- 
stroyed for  ever.  But  thou,  O  Lord,  art  on  high  for 
evermore.      For,   lo,   thine   enemies,    O    Lord,    for,

157  INAUGURATION   OF  THE  SABBATH 

/o,  thine  enemies  shall  perish ;  all  the  workers  o! 
iniquity  shall  be  scattered.  But  my  horn  hast  thou 
txalted,  like  that  of  the  wild-ox:  I  am  anointed 
with  fresh  oil.  Mine  eye  also  hath  seen  my  desire 
on  mine  enemies;  mine  ears  have  heard  my  desire  of 
them  that  rose  up  against  me,  doers  of  evil.  The 
righteous  shall  spring  up  like  a  palm-tree ;  he  shall 
grow  tall  like  a  cedar  in  Lebanon.  Planted  in  the 
house  of  the  Lord,  they  shall  blossom  in  the  courts 
of  our  God.  They  shall  still  shoot  forth  in  old 
age ;  they  shall  be  full  of  sap  and  green :  to  declare 
that  the  Lord  is  upright;  he  is  my  rock,  and  there 
is  no  unrighteousness  in  him. 

Psalm  xciii. 

The  Lord  reigneth ;  he  hath  robed  him  in  majesty; 
the  Lord  hath  robed  him,  yea,  he  hath  girded  him- 
self with  strength :  the  world  also  is  set  firm,  that 
it  cannot  be  moved.  Thy  throne  is  set  firm  from 
of  old:  thou  art  from  everlasting.  The  streams 
have  Hfted  up,  O  Lord,  the  streams  have  lifted  up 
their  voice ;  the  streams  lift  up  their  roaring.  Than 
the  voices  of  many  waters,  mighty  waters,  breakers 
of  the  sea,  more  mighty  is  the  Lord  on  high.  Thy 
testimonies  are  very  faithful :  holiness  becometh 
thine  house,  O  Lord,  for  evermore. 

The  foil  oaring  Kaddish  is  said  by  a  Mourner. 

Mourner. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great 
name  in  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according 
to  his  will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during 
your  life  and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life 
of  all  the  house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a 
pear  time,  and  say  ye,  Amen.

diligently  unto  my  commandments  which  I  com- 
mand you  this  day,  to  love  the  Lord  your  God,

all  your  soul,  that  I  will  give  the  rain  of  your 
land  in  its  season,  the  former  rain  and  the  latter 
rain,  that  thou  mayest  gather  in  thy  corn,  and 
thy  wine,  and  thine  oil.  And  I  will  give  grass 
in  thy  field  for  thy  cattle,  and  thou  shalt  eat 
and  be  satisfied.  Take  heed  to  yourselves,  lest 
your  heart  be  deceived,  and  ye  turn  aside,  and 
serve  other  gods,  and  worship  them;  and  the 
anger  of  the  Lord  be  kindled  against  you,  and 
he  shut  up  the  heaven,  that  there  be  no  rain, 
and  that  the  land  yield  not  her  fruit ;  and  ye  per- 
ish quickly  from  off  the  good  land  which  the 
Lord  giveth  you.  Therefore  shall  ye  lay  up

established  with  us  that  he  is  the  Lord  our  God, 
and  there  is  none  beside  him,  and  that  we, 
Israel,  are  his  people.  It  is  he  who  redeemed 
us  from  the  hand  of  kings,  even  our  King,  who 
delivered  us  from  the  grasp  of  all  the  terrible 
ones ;  the  God,  who  on  our  behalf  dealt  out  pun- 
ishment to  our  adversaries,  and  requited  all  the 
enemies  of  our  soul;  who  doeth  great  things 
past  finding  out,  yea,  and  wonders  without 
number;  who  hcldeth  our  soul  in  life,  and  hath 
not  suffered  our  feet  to  be  moved;  who  made 
us  tread  upon  the  high  places  of  our  enemies, 
and  exalted  our  horn  over  all  them  that  hated 
us ;  who  wrought  for  us  miracles  and  vengeance 
upon  Pharaoh,  signs  and  wonders  in  the  land  of 
the  children  of  Ham;  who  in  his  wrath  smote  all 
the  first-born  of  Egypt,  and  brought  forth  his

people  Israel  from  among  them  to  everlasting 
freedom;  who  made  his  children  pass  betw^een 
the  divisions  of  the  Red  Sea,  but  sank  their  pur- 
suers and  their  enemies  in  the  depths.  Then 
his  children  beheld  his  might ;  they  praised  and 
gave  thanks  unto  his  name,  and  v^illingly  ac- 
cepted his  sovereignty.  Moses  and  the  chil- 
dren of  Israel  sang  a  song  unto  thee  with  great 
joy,  saying,  all  of  them, 

Who  is  like  unto  thee,  O  Lord,  among  the 
mighty  ones?  Who  is  like  unto  thee,  glorious 
in  holiness,  revered  in  praises,  doing  wonders? 

Thy  children  beheld  thy  sovereign  power,  as  thou 
didst  cleave  the  sea  before  Moses:  they  exclaimed, 
This  is  my  God!  and  said, 

The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever. 

And  it  is  said,  For  the  Lord  hath  delivered  Jacob, 
and  redeemed  him  from  the  hand  of  him  that  was 
stronger  than  he.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  hast 
redeemed  Israel. 

Cause  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  lie  down  in  peace, 
and  raise  us  up,  O  our  King,  unto  life.  Spread  over 
us  the  tabernacle  of  thy  peace;  direct  us  aright 
through  thine  own  good  counsel;  save  us  for  thy 
name's  sake ;  be  thou  a  shield  about  us ;  remove  from 
IS  every  enemy,   pestilence,   sword,   famine  and  sor-

Exodus  xxxi.  16,  17. 

And  the  children  of  Israel  shall  keep  the  Sabbath, 
to  observe  the  Sabbath  throughout  their  generations, 
for  an  everlasting  covenant.  It  is  a  sign  between  me 
and  the  children  of  Israel  for  ever,  that  in  six  days 
the  Lord  made  the  heavens  and  the  earth,  and  on  the 
seventh  day  he  rested,  and  ceased  from  his  work. 

On  Passover,  Pentecost  and  Tabernacles,  say: — 

And  Moses  declared  the  set  feasts  of  the  Lord  unto 
the  children  of  Israel. 

On  New  Year: — 

Blow  the  horn  on  the  new  moon,  at  the  beginning  of 
the  month,  for  our  day  of  festival :  for  it  is  a  statute 
for  Israel,  a  decree  of  the  God  of  Jacob. 

On  the  Day  of  Atonement: — 

For  on  this  day  shall  atonement  be  made  for  you  to 
cleanse  you ;  from  all  your  sins  shall  ye  be  clean  before 
the  Lora

Thou  didst  hallow  the  seventh  day  unto  thy

didst  hallow  it  above  all  seasons ;  and  thus  it  is 
\yritten  in  thy  Law: 

And  the  heaven  and  the  earth  were  finished 
and  all  their  host.  And  on  the  seventh  day  God 
had  finished  his  work  which  he  had  made ;  and 
he  rested  on  the  seventh  day  from  all  his  work 
which  he  had  made.  And  God  blessed  the  sev- 
enth day,  and  he  hallowed  it  because  he  rested 
thereon  from  all  his  work  which  God  had  cre- 
ated and  made. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  accept 
our  rest;  sanctify  us  by  thy  command-

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  blessest  thy 
people  Israel  with  peace. 

O  my  God!  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my 
lips  from  speaking  guile;  and  to  such  as  curse 
me  let  my  soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be 
unto  all  as  the  dust.     Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,

and  let  my  soul  pursue  thy  commandments.  If  any 
design  evil  against  me,  speedily  make  their  counsel 
of  none  effect,  and  frustrate  their  designs.  Do  it 
for  the  sake  of  thy  name,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy 
right  hand,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  holiness,  do  it 
for  the  sake  of  thy  Law.  In  order  that  thy  beloved 
ones  may  be  delivered,  O  save  with  thy  right  hand, 
and  answer  me.  Let  the  words  of  my  mouth  and  the 
meditation  of  my  heart  be  acceptable  before  thee,  O 
Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer.  He  who  maketh 
peace  in  his  high  places,  may  he  make  peace  for  us 
and  for  all  Israel,  and  say  ye.  Amen. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  that  the  temple  be  speedily  rebuilt  in  our  days, 
and  grant  our  portion  in  thy  Law.  And  there  we  will 
serve  thee  with  awe,  as  in  the  days  of  old,  and  as  in 
ancient  years.  Then  shall  the  offering  of  Judah  and 
Jerusalem  be  pleasant  unto  the  Lord,  as  in  the  days  of 
old,  and  as  in  ancient  years. 


The  Reader  and  Congregation  repeat  front  "And  the  heaven' 
to   '*and  made." 


And  the  heaven  and  the  earth  were  finished  and  all 
their  host.  And  on  the  seventh  day  God  had  finished 
his  work  which  he  had  made ;  and  he  rested  on  the  sev- 
enth day  from  all  his  work  which  he  had  made.  And 
God  blessed  the  seventh  day,  and  he  hallowed  it,  be- 
cause he  rested  thereon  from  all  his  work  which 
God  had  created  and  made.

The  following  to  "the  Sabbath"  is  omitted  when  Prayers  are 
not  said  with   the   Congregation: — 


Reader. — Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and 
God  of  our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac 
and  God  of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God, 
the  most  high  God,  Possessor  of  heaven  and  earth. 

Reader  and  Cong. — He  with  his  word  was  a  shield 
to  our  forefathers,  and  by  his  bidding  will  quicken  the 
dead;  the  holy  God  {on  the  Sabbath  of  Penitence  say, 
"holy  King"),  like  unto  whom  there  is  none;  who  giv- 
eth  rest  to  his  people  on  his  holy  Sabbath  day,  be- 
cause he  took  pleasure  in  them  to  grant  them  rest. 
Him  we  will  serve  with  fear  and  awe,  and  daily  and 
constantly  we  will  give  thanks  unto  his  name  in  the 
fitting  forms  of  Blessings.  He  is  the  God  to  whom 
thanksgivings  are  due,  the  Lord  of  peace,  who  hal- 
loweth  the  Sabbath  and  blesseth  the  seventh  day,  and 
in  holiness  giveth  rest  unto  a  people  sated  with  de- 
lights, in  remembrance  of  the  creation. 

Reader. — Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  accept 
our  rest ;  sanctify  us  by  thy  commandments,  and  grant 
our  portion  in  thy  Law ;  satisfy  us  with  thy  goodness, 
gladden  us  with  thy  salvation;  purify  our  hearts  to 
serve  thee  in  truth  ;  and  in  thy  love  and  favor,  O  Lord 
our  God,  let  us  inherit  thy  holy  Sabbath;  and  may 
Israel,  who  hallow  thy  name,  rest  thereon.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  hallowest  the  Sabbath.

weeds  (all  these  forming  imperfect  wicks).  It  may  also  not 
be  lighted  with  pitch,  nor  with  liquid  wax,  nor  with  oil  made 
from  the  seeds  of  the  cotton  plant,  nor  with  oil  which,  having 
been  set  apart  as  a  heave-offering  and  having  become  defiled, 
is  condemned  to  be  destroyed  by  burning,  nor  with  the  fat 
from  the  tails  of  sheep,  nor  with  tallow.  Nahum  the  Mede 
says  one  may  use  tallow  when  it  has  been  boiled,  but  the  other 
sages  say,  that  whether  so  prepared  or  not,  it  may  not  be 
used.  2.  On  a  festival  one  may  not  use  such  consecrated  oil 
as  has  been  condemned,  after  defilement,  to  be  burnt.  R.  Ish- 
mael  says,  one  may  not,  from  respect  to  the  Sabbath,  use  tar. 
The  sages  permit  the  use  of  all  kinds  of  oil;  the  oil  of  sesa- 
mum,  of  nuts,  of  radish  seeds,  of  fish,  of  colocynth  seeds,  as 
well  as  tar  and  naphtha.  R.  Tarphon  says,  one  may  use  no 
other  than  olive  oil  for  lighting  the  Sabbath  lamp.  3.  No 
part  of  a  tree  may  be  used  as  a  wick  for  lighting,  with  the 
exception  of  flax  (spoken  of  in  Joshua  ii.  6  as  "the  flax  of  a 
tree")  ;  nor  is  any  part  of  a  tree,  if  used  in  the  construction 
of  a  tent,  capable  of  acquiring  pollution  according  to  the  law 
concerning  the  pollution  of  tents,  except  flax.  If  a  slip  of 
cloth  has  been  folded  but  not  singed,  R.  Eliezer  says  it  may 
become  unclean,  and  may  not  be  used  as  a  wick  for  lighting; 
R.  Akiba  says  it  remains  clean,  and  may  be  used.  4.  One 
may  not  perforate  an  egg-shell,  fill  it  with  oil,  and  place  it 
above  the  opening  of  the  lamp,  so  that  drops  of  oil  may  fall 
therein;  he  may  not  even  employ  an  earthenware  vessel  in 
this  manner ;  but  R.  Jehudah  permits  it.  If,  however,  the  pot- 
ter had  originally  joined  the  two  parts,  then  it  is  allowed, 
because  it  is  actually  only  one  vessel.  A  person  may  not  fill 
a  bowl  with  oil,  place  it  by  the  side  of  the  lamp,  and  put  the 
end  of  the  wick  into  it,  so  that  it  may  draw  the  oil  to  the 
flame;  but  R.  Jehudah  permits  it.  5.  He  who  extinguishes 
^he  light,  because  he  is  in  fear  of  heathens,  or  robbers,  or  of 
Gn  evil  spirit,  or  to  enable  a  sick  person  to  sleep,  is  absolved;

if  his  object  is  to  save  the  lamp,  the  oil,  or  the  wick,  he  is 
guilty  of  a  breach  of  the  Sabbath  law.  R.  Jose  absolves  from 
such  guilt  in  every  case  except  in  that  of  the  one  whose 
object  is  to  save  the  wick,  because  by  thus  extinguishing  it, 
he  converts  it  into  a  coal.  6.  For  three  transgressions  women 
die  in  childbirth :  because  they  have  been  negligent  in  regard 
to  their  periods  of  separation,  in  respect  to  the  consecration 
of  the  first  cake  of  the  dough,  and  in  the  lighting  of  the 
Sabbath  lamp.  7.  Three  things  a  man  must  say  to  his  house- 
hold on  Sabbath  eve  towards  dusk :  Have  ye  separated  the 
tithe?  Have  ye  made  the  Erub?  Kindle  the  Sabbath  lamp. 
If  it  be  doubtful  whether  it  is  dark,  that  which  is  certainly 
untithed  must  not  then  be  tithed,  vessels  must  not  be  im- 
mersed to  purify  them  from  their  de^'xlement,  nor  must  the 
Sabbath  lamps  be  lighted;  but  that  which  is  doubtfully  un^ 
.ithed  may  be  tithed,  the  Erub  may  be  made,  and  hot  victuals 
may  be  covered  to  retain  their  heat. 

Talmud  Babli.     End  of  Treatise  Berachoth, 

R.  Eleazar  said  in  the  name  of  R.  Chanina,  The  disciples  ol 
the  sages  increase  peace  throughout  the  world,  as  it  is  said, 
And  all  thy  children  shall  be  taught  of  the  Lord ;  and  great 
shall  be  the  peace  of  thy  children.  (Read  not  here  banavich, 
hy  children,  but  bonayich,  thy  builders.) — Great  peace  have 
they  who  love  thy  Law  ;  and  there  is  no  stumbling  for  them. 
Peace  be  within  thy  rampart,  prosperity  within  thy  palaces. 
For  my  brethren  and  companions'  sakes  I  would  fain  speak 
peace  concerning  thee.  For  the  sake  of  the  house  of  the 
Lord  our  God  I  would  seek  thy  good.  The  Lord  will  give 
strength  unto  his  people ;  the  Lord  will  bless  his  people  with 
peace. 

Kiddush  is  said  by  the  Reader,  p.  18L 

It  is  our  duty  to  praise  the  Lord  of  all  things,  to 
ascribe  greatness  to  him  who  formed  the  world  in 
the  beginning,  since  he  hath  not  made  us  like  the 
nations    of    dther    lands,    and    hath    not    placed    us

like  other  families  of  the  earth,  since  he  hath  not  as- 
signed unto  us  a  portion  as  unto  them,  nor  a  lot  as 
unto  all  their  multitude.  For  we  bend  the  knee  and 
offer  worship  and  thanks  before  the  supreme  King  of 
kings,  the  Holy  One,  blessea  be  he,  who  stretched 
forth  the  heavens  and  laid  the  foundations  of  the 
earth,  the  seat  of  whose  glory  is  in  the  heavens  above, 
and  the  abode  of  whose  might  is  in  the  loftiest  heights. 
He  is  our  God;  there  is  none  else;  in  truth  he  is  our 
King;  there  is  none  besides  him;  as  it  is  written  in  his 
Law,  And  thou  shalt  know  this  day,  and  lay  it  to  thine 
heart,  that  the  Lord  he  is  God  in  heaven  above  and 
*upon  the  earth  beneath :  there  is  none  else. 

We  therefore  hope  in  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  that 
we  may  speedily  behold  the  glory  of  thy  might,  when 
thou  wilt  remove  the  abominations  from  the  earth,  and 
the  idols  will  be  utterly  cut  off,  when  the  world  will  be 
perfected  under  the  kingdom  of  the  Almighty,  and  all 
the  children  of  flesh  will  call  upon  thy  name,  when 
thou  wilt  turn  unto  thyself  all  the  wicked  of  the  earth. 
Let  all  the  inhabitants  of  the  world  perceive  and  know 
that  unto  thee  every  knee  must  bow,  every  tongue  must 
swear.  Before  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  let  them  bow 
and  fall;  and  unto  thy  glorious  name  let  them  give 
honor;  let  them  all  accept  the  yoke  of  thy  kingdom, 
and  do  thou  reign  over  them  speedily,  and  for  ever  and 
ever.  For  the  kingdom  is  thine,  and  to  all  eternity 
thou  wilt  reign  in  glory;  as  it  is  written  in  thy  Law,

The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.  And  it  is  said, 
And  the  Lord  shall  be  king  over  all  the  earth :  in  that 
lay  shall  the  Lord  be  One,  and  his  name  One. 

The  following  Kaddish  is  said  by  a  Mourner. 

Mourner. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great 
name  in  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according 
to  his  will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during  your 
ife  and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life  of  all 
ithe  house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a  near  time, 
and  say  ye,  Amen. 

Cong,  and  Mourner. — Let  his  great  name  be  blessed 
for  ever  and  to  all  eternity. 

Mourner. — Blessed,  praised  and  glorified,  exalted, 
extolled  and  honored,  magnified  and  lauded  be  the 
name  of  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he;  though  he  be 
high  above  all  the  blessings  and  hymns,  praises  and 
consolations,  which  are  uttered  in  the  world ;  and  say 
ye,  Amen. 

Cong. — Let  the  name  of  the  Lord  be  blessed  from 
this  time  forth  and  for  evermore. 

Mourner. — May  there  be  abundant  peace  from 
heaven,  and  life  for  us  and  for  all  Israel;  and  say 
ye,  Amen. 

Cong. — My  help  is  from  the  Lord,  who  made 
heaven  and  earth. 

Mourner. — He  who  maketh  peace  in  his  high  places, 
may  he  make  peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel ;  and  say 
ye,  Amen. 

\.     Magnified  and  praised  be  the  living  God:  he  is, 
nd  there  is  no  limit  in  time  unto  his  being. 

2.  He  is  One,  and  there  is  no  unity  like  unto  his 
unity ;  inconceivable  is  he,  and  unending  is  his  unity.

3.  He  hath  neither  bodily  form  nor  substance:  we 
'^an  compare  nought  unto  him  in  his  hohness. 

4.  He  was  before  anything  that  hath  been  cre- 
ated— even  the  first:  but  his  existence  had  no  be- 
ginning. 

5.  Behold  he  is  the  Lord  of  the  universe:  to  every 
creature  he  teacheth  his  greatness  and  his  sovereignty. 

6.  The  rich  gift  of  his  prophecy  he  gave  unto  the 
men  of  his  choice,  in  whom  he  gloried. 

7.  There  hath  never  yet  arisen  in  Israel  a  prophet 
like  unto  Moses,  one  who  hath  beheld  his  similitude. 

8.  The  Law  of  truth  God  gave  unto  his  people  by 
the  hand  of  his  prophet,  who  was  faithful  in  his  house. 

9.  God  will  not  alter  nor  change  his  Law  to  ever- 
lasting for  any  other. 

10.  He  watcheth  and  knoweth  our  secret  thoughts : 
he  beholdeth  the  end  of  a  thing  before  it  existeth. 

11.  He  bestoweth  iovingkindness  upon  a  man  ac- 
cording to  his  work;  he  giveth  to  the  wicked  evil 
according  to  his  wickedness. 

12.  He  will  send  our  anointed  at  the  end  of  days, 
to  redeem  them  that  wait  for  the  end — his  salvation. 

13.  In  the  abundance  of  his  Iovingkindness  God 
will  quicken  the  dead.  Blessed  for  evermore  be  his 
glorious  name. 


On  the  Eve  of  Sabbaths  and  of  Holydays  it  is  customary  for 
Parents,  either  at  the  conclusion  of  the  Service  in  Syna- 
gogue, or  upon  reaching  their  Home,  to  pronounce  the  fol- 
lowing Benediction  upon  their  Children: — 

To  Sons  say: — 
God  make  thee  as  Ephraim  and  Manasseh. 

To  Daughters  say: — 
God  make  thee  as  Sarah,  Rebekah,  Rachel  and  Leah. 

To  Sons  and  Daughters: — 
The  Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee :  the  Lord  make 
his  face  to  shine  upon  thee,  and  be  gracious  unto  thee : 
the  Lord  turn  his  face  unto  thee,  and  give  thee  peace.

180     EVENING  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS  AND  FESTIVALS 

The  following  is  said  in  the  Home  by  the  Master  of  the 
House: — 
Proverbs  xxxi.  10 — 31. 
A  woman  of  worth  who  can  find?    For  her  price  is 
far  above  rubies.     The  heart  of  her  husband  trusteth 
in  her;  and  he  shall  have  no  lack  of  gain.     She  doeth 
him  good  and  not  evil  all  the  days  of  her  hfe.     She 
seeketh  wool  and  flax,  and  worketh  willingly  with  her 
liands.     She  is  like  the  merchant-ships ;  she  bringeth 
her  food  from  afar.     She  riseth  also  while  it  is  yet 
night,  and  setteth  forth  provision  for  her  household, 
and  their  portion  for  her  maidens.     She  considereth  a 
field,  and  buyeth  it:  with  the  fruit  of  her  hands  she 
planteth   a    vineyard.       She    girdeth    her    loins    with 
strength,  and  maketh  strong  her  arms.    She  perceiveth 
that  her  earnings  are  good :  her  lamp  goeth  not  out  by 
night.     She  putteth  her  hands  to  the  distaff,  and  her 
hands  hold  the  spindle.     She  stretcheth  out  her  hand 
to  the  poor;  yea,  she  putteth  forth  her  hands  to  the 
needy.     She  is  not  afraid  of  the  snow  for  her  house- 
hold ;  for  all  her  household  are  clothed  with  scarlet. 
She   maketh   for   herself   coverings   of   tapestry;   her 
clothing   is   fine   linen   and   purple.     Her   husband   is 
known  in  the  gates,  when  he  sitteth  among  the  elders 
of  the  land.     She  maketh  linen  garments  and  selletli 
them ;    and    delivereth    girdles    unto    the    merchant. 
Strength  and  majesty  are  her  clothing;  and  she  laugh- 
eth  at  the  time  to  come.     She  openeth  her  mouth  with 
wisdom;   and   the   law   of    lovingkindness    is   on   her 
tongue.     She  looketh  well  to  the  ways  of  her  house- 
hold, and  eateth  not  the  bread  of  idleness.     Her  chil- 
dren rise  up  and  call  her  happy ;  her  husband  also,  and 
he  praiseth  her,   saying.   Many  daughters  have   done 
worthily,  but  thou  excellest  them  all.     Favor  is  false, 
and  beauty  is  vain ;'  but  a  woman  that  feareth  the  Lord, 
she   shall  be  praised.     Give  her  of  the   fruit  of  hei 
hands ;  and  let  her  works  praise  her  in  the  gates.

KIDDUSH   FOR   SABBATH   EVENING. 

The   following  is  said  in   the  Home   by   the   Master  of  the 
House,  previous  to  partaking  of  the  Sabbath  Meal: — 


And  it  was  evening  and  it  was  morning — the  sixth 
day. 

And  the  heaven  and  the  earth  were  finished  and  all 
their  host.  And  on  the  seventh  day  God  had  finished 
his  work  which  he  had  made;  and  he  rested  on  the 
seventh  day  from  all  his  work  which  he  had  made. 
And  God  blessed  the  seventh  day,  and  he  hallowed  it, 
because  he  rested  thereon  from  all  his  work  which  God 
had  created  and  made. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  Greatest  the  fruit  of  the  vine. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments 
and  hast  taken  pleasure  in  us,  and  in  love  and  favor 
hast  given  us  thy  holy  Sabbath  as  an  inheritance,  a 
memorial  of  the  creation — that  day  being  also  the  first 
of  the  holy  convocations,  in  remembrance  of  the  de- 
parture from  Egypt.  For  thou  hast  chosen  us  and 
sanctified  us  above  all  nations,  and  in  love  and  favor 
hast  given  us  thy  holy  Sabbath  as  an  inheritance. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  hallowest  the  Sabbath. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  bringest  forth  bread  from  the  earth.

follows: — 

The  breath  of  every  Hving  being  shall  bless  thy

shall  continually  glorify  and  exalt  thy  memorial,  O

supporteth  and  hath  mercy  in  all  times  of  trouble 
and  distress ;  yea,  we  have  no  King  but  thee. 

He  is  God  of  the  first  and  of  the  last,  the  God  of 
all  creatures,  the  Lord  of  all  generations,  who  is 
extolled  with  many  praises,  and  guideth  his  world 
with  lovingkindness  and  his  creatures  with  tender 
mercies.  The  Lord  slumbereth  not,  nor  sleepeth; 
he  arouseth  the  sleepers  and  awakeneth  the  slumb- 
erers;  he  maketh  the  dumb  to  speak,  loseth  the 
bound,  supporteth  the  falling,  and  raiseth  up  the 
bowed. 

To  thee  alone  we  give  thanks.  Though  our 
mouths  were  full  of  song  as  the  sea,  and  our  tongues 
of  exultation  as  the  multitude  of  its  waves,  and  our 
lips  of  praise  as  the  wide-extended  firmament; 
though  our  eyes  shone  with  light  like  the  sun  and 
the  moon,  and  our  hands  were  spread  forth  like 
the  eagles  of  heaven,  and  our  feet  were  swift  as 
hinds,  we  should  still  be  unable  to  thank  thee  and 
to  bless  thy  name,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  for  one  thousandth  or  one  ten  thousandth

part  of  the  bounties  which  thou  hast  bestowed 
upon  our  fathers  and  upon  us.  Thou  didst 
redeem  us  from  Egypt,  O  Lord  our  God,  and  didst 
release  us  from  the  house  of  bondage;  during 
famine  thou  didst  feed  us,  and  didst  sustain  us  in 
plenty;  from  the  sword  thou  didst  rescue  us,  from 
pestilence  thou  didst  save  us,  and  from  sore  and 
lasting  diseases  thou  didst  deliver  us.  Hitherto  thy 
tender  mercies  have  helped  us,  and  thy  lovingkind- 
nesses  have  not  left  us :  forsake  us  not,  O  Lord  our 
God,  for  ever.  Therefore  the  limbs  which  thou  hast 
spread  forth  upon  us,  and  the  spirit  and  breath 
which  thou  hast  breathed  into  our  nostrils,  and 
the  tongue  which  thou  hast  set  in  our  mouths,  lo, 
they  shall  thank,  bless,  praise,  glorify,  extol,  rever- 
ence, hallow  and  assign  kingship  to  thy  name,  O 
our  King.  For  every  mouth  shall  give  thanks  unto 
thee,  and  every  tongue  shall  swear  unto  thee ;  every 
knee  shall  bow  to  thee,  and  whatsoever  is  lofty 
shall  prostrate  itself  before  thee;  all  hearts  shall 
fear  thee,  and  all  the  inward  parts  and  reins  shall 
sing  unto  thy  name,  according  to  the  word  that  is 
written,  All  my  bones  shall  say,  Lord,  who  is  like 
unto  thee?  Thou  deliverest  the  poor  from  him 
that  is  stronger  than  he,  the  poor  and  the  needy 
from  him  that  robbeth  him.  Who  is  like  unto  thee, 
who  is  equal  to  thee,  who  can  be  compared  unto 
thee,  O  God,  great,  mighty,  and  awful,  most  high 
God,  Possessor  of  heaven  and  earth  ?  We  will  praise,

laud  and  glorify  thee,  and  we  will  bless  thy  holy 
name,  as  it  is  said,  (A  Psalm  of  David,)  Bless  the 
Lord,  O  my  soul;  and  all  that  is  within  me,  bless 
his  holy  name.  Thou  art  God  in  thy  power  and 
might,  great  in  thy  glorious  name,  mighty  for  ever 
and  awful  by  thy  awful  acts,  the  King  who  sitteth 
upon  a  high  and  lofty  throne. 

He  who  inhabiteth  eternity,  exalted  and  holy  is 
his  name ;  and  it  is  written.  Exult  in  the  Lord,  O 
ye  righteous ;  praise  is  seemly  for  the  upright. 

By  the  mouth  of  the  upright  thou  shalt  be  praised, 
by  the  words  of  the  righteous  thou  shalt  be  blessed, 
by  the  tongue  of  the  loving  ones  thou  shalt  be 
extolled,  and  in  the  midst  of  the  holy  thou  shalt  be 
hallowed. 

In  the  assemblies  also  of  the  tens  of  thousands 
of  thy  people,  the  house  of  Israel,  thy  name,  O  our 
King,  shall  be  glorified  with  joyous  ciies  in  every 
generation;  for  such  is  the  duty  of  all  creatures 
in  thy  presence,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  to  thank,  praise,  laud,  glorify,  extol,  honor, 
bless,  exalt  and  adore  thee,  even  beyond  all  the 
words  of  song  and  praise  of  David  the  son  of  Jesse, 
thy  servant  and  anointed.

ovingkindness  and  tender  mercy  before  his  glory. 
The  luminaries  are  good  which  our  God  hath 
created:  he  formed  them  with  knowledge,  under- 
standing and  discernment;  he  gave  them  might  and 
power  to  rule  in  the  midst  of  the  world.  They  are 
full  of  lustre,  and  they  radiate  brightness :  beauti- 
ful is  their  lustre  throughout  all  the  world.  They 
rejoice  in  their  going  forth,  and  are  glad  in  their 
returning;  they  perform  with  awe  the  will  of  their 
Master.  Glory  and  honor  they  render  unto  his 
name,  exultation  and  rejoicing  at  the  remembrance 
of  his  sovereignty.  He  called  unto  the  sun,  and  it 
shone  forth  in  light :  he  looked,  and  ordained  the 
figure  of  the  moon.  All  the  hosts  on  high  render 
praise  unto  him,  the  Seraphim,  the  Ophanim  and 
the  holy  Chayoth  ascribing  glory  and  greatness — 
To  the  God  who  rested  from  all  his  works,  and  on 
the  seventh  day  exalted  himself  and  sat  upon  the 
throne  of  his  glory ;  who  robed  himself  in  glory  on 
the  day  of  rest,  and  called  the  Sabbath  day  a  delight. 
This  is  the  praise  of  the  Sabbath  day,  that  God 
rested  thereon  from  all  his  work,  when  the  Sab- 
bath day  itself  offered  praise  and  said,  "A  Psalm,  a 
song  of  the  Sabbath  day,  P  is  good  to  give  thanks 
into  the  Lord."*  Therefore  let  all  his  creatures  glo- 
rify  and   bless   God ;   let  them   render   praise,   honor

The  name  of  the  Divine  King,  the  great,  mighty 
and  dreaded  One,  holy  is  he ;  and  they  all  take  upon 
themselves  the  yoke  oi  the  kingdom  of  heaven  one 
from  the  other,  and  give  sanction  to  one  another  to 
hallow  their  Creator:  in  tranquil  joy  of  spirit,  with 
pure  speech  and  holy  melody  they  all  respond  in 
unison,  and  exclaim  with  awe: 

Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts:  the 
whole  earth  is  full  of  his  glory. 

And  the  Ophanim  and  the  holy  Chayoth  with  a 
noise  of  great  rushing,  upraising  themselves 
towards  the  Seraphim,  thus  over  against  them  offer 
praise  and  say: 

Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from  his 
place. 

To  the  blessed  God  they  offer  pleasant  melodies? 
to  the  King,  the  living  and  ever-enduring  God,  they 
utter  hymns  and  make  their  praises  heard;  for  he 
alone  performeth  mighty  deeds,  and  maketh  new 
things;  he  is  the  Lord  of  battles;  he  soweth  right- 
eousness, causeth  salvation  to  spring  forth,  createth 
remedies,  and  is  revered  in  praises.  He  is  the  Lord 
gl  wonders,  who  in  his  goodness  reneweth  the  crea-

light  to  shine  upon  Zion,  and  may  we  all  be  worthy 
soon  to  enjoy  its  brightness.  Blessed  art  thou,  O 
Lord,  Creator*  of  the  luminaries. 

With  abounding  love  hast  thou  loved  us,  O  Lord 
our  God,  with  great  and  exceeding  pity  hast  thou 
pitied  us.  O  our  Father,  our  King,  for  our  fathers' 
sake,  who  trusted  in  thee,  and  whom  thou  didst 
teach  the  statutes  of  life,  be  also  gracious  unto  us 
and  teach  us.  O  our  Father,  merciful  Father,  ever- 
compassionate,  have  mercy  upon  us :  O  put  it  into 
our  hearts  to  understand  and  to  discern,  to  mark, 
learn  and  teach,  to  heed,  to  do  and  to  fulfil  in  love 
all  the  words  of  instruction  in  thy  Law.  Enlighten 
our  eyes  in  thy  Law,  and  let  our  hearts  cleave  to  thy 
commandments,  and  unite  our  hearts  to  love  and 
fear  thy  name,  so  that  we  be  never  put  to  shame. 
Because  we  have  trusted  in  thy  holy,  great  and 
revered  name,  we  shall  rejoice  and  be  glad  in  thy 
salvation.  O  bring  us  in  peace  from  the  four  cor- 
ners of  the  earth,  and  make  us  go  upright  to  our 
land;  for  thou  art  a  God  who  worketh  salvation. 
Thou  hast  chosen  us  from  all  peoples  and  tongues, 
and  hast  brought  us  near  unto  thy  great  name  for 
ever  in  faithfulness,  that  we  might  in  love  give 
thanks  unto  thee  and  proclaim  thy  unity.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  hast  chosen  thy  people  Israel 
in  love.

Deut.  vi.  4—9. 

Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord 
;s  One. 


Blessed  be  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom  is 
fvor  ever  and  ever. 


And  thou  shalt  love  the  Lord  thy  God  with  all 
thine  heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul,  and  with  all 
thy  might.  And  these  words,  which  I  command 
thee  this  day,  shall  be  upon  thine  heart:  and 
thou  shalt  teach  them  diligently  unto  thy  chil- 
dren, and  shalt  talk  of  them  when  thou  sittest 
In  thine  house,  and  when  thou  walkest  by  the 
way,  and  when  thou  liest  down,  and  when  thou 
risest  up.  And  thou  shalt  bind  them  for  a  sign 
upon  thine  hand,  and  they  shall  be  for  frontlets 
between  thine  eyes.  And  thou  shalt  write  them 
upon  the  door  posts  of  thy  house,  and  upon  thy 
gates. 

Deut.  xi.  13—21. 

And  it  shall  come  to  pass,  if  ye  shall  hearken 
diligently  unto  my  commandments  which  I  com- 
mand you  this  day,  to  love  the  Lord  your  God.

And  the  Lord  spake  unto  Moses,  saying, 
Speak  unto  the  children  of  Israel,  and  bid  them 
that  they  make  them  a  fringe  upon  the  corners 
of  their  garments  throughout  their  generations, 
and  that  they  put  upon  the  fringe  of  each  corner 
a  cord  of  blue:  and  it  shall  be  unto  you  for  a 
fringe,  that  ye  may  look  upon  it,  and  remember 
all  the  commandments  of  the  Lord,  and  do 
them;  and  that  ye  go  not  about  after  your  own 
heart  and  your  own  eyes,  after  which  ye  use  to 
go  astray :  that  ye  may  remember  and  do  all  my 
commandments,  and  be  holy  unto  your  God. 
I  am  the  Lord  your  God,  who  brought  you  out 
of  the  land  of  Egypt,  to  be  your  God:  I  am  the 
Lord  your  God.

195     MORNING  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS  AND  FESTIVALS 

True  and  firm,  established  and  enduring,  right  and 
faithful,  beloved  and  precious,  desirable  and  pleasant, 
revered  and  mighty,  well-ordered  and  acceptable,  good 
and  beautiful  is  this  thy  word  unto  us  for  ever  and 
ever.  It  is  true,  the  God  of  the  universe  is  our  King, 
the  Rock  of  Jacob,  the  Shield  of  our  salvation : 
throughout  all  generations  he  endureth  and  his  name 
endureth ;  his  throne  is  established,  and  his  kingdom 
and  his  faithfulness  endure  for  ever.  His  words  also 
live  and  endure;  they  are  faithful  and  desirable  for 
ever  and  to  all  eternity,  as  for  our  fathers  so  also  for 
us,  our  children,  our  generations,  and  for  all  the  gen- 
erations of  the  seed  of  Israel  his  servants. 

For  the  first  and  for  the  last  ages  thy  word  is  good 
and  endureth  for  ever  and  ever;  it  is  true  and  trust- 
worthy, a  statute  which  shall  not  pass  away.  True  it 
is  that  thou  art  indeed  the  Lord  our  God  and  the  God 
of  our  fathers,  our  King,  our  fathers'  King,  our  Re- 
deemer, the  Redeemer  of  our  fathers,  our  Maker,  the 
Rock  of  our  salvation;  our  Deliverer  and  Rescuer 
from  everlasting,  such  is  thy  name ;  there  is  no  God 
beside  thee. 

Thou  hast  been  the  help  of  our  fathers  from  of  old, 
a  Shield  and  Savior  to  their  children  after  them  in 
every  generation :  in  the  heights  of  the  universe  Is  thy 
habitation,  and  thy  judgments  and  thy  righteousness 
reach  to  the  furthest  ends  of  the  earth.  Happy  is 
the  man  who  hearkeneth  unto  thy  commandments^ 
and  layeth  up  thy  Law  and  thy  word  in  his  heart

of  our  fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,

vered God,  the  most  high  God,  who  bestowest 
lovingkindnesses,  and  possessest  all  things;

archs, and  in  love  wilt  bring  a  redeemer  to  their

portest  the  falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the 
bound,  and  keepest  thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep

dead.  *     (See  page  199).

When  the  Reader  repeats  the  Amidah.  the  following  is  said, 
to  "holy  God,"  p.  200. 


*  Reader. — We  will  sanctify  thy  name  in  the  world 
^ven  as  they  sanctify  it  in  the  highest  heavens,  as  it 
is  written  by  the  hand  of  thy  prophet:  And  they 
called  one  unto  the  other  and  said, 

Cong. — Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts :  the 
whole  earth  is  full  of  his  glory. 

Reader. — Then  with  a  noise  of  great  rushing, 
mighty  and  strong,  they  make  their  voices  heard,  and, 
upraising  themselves  toward  the  Seraphim,  they  ex- 
claim over  against  them.  Blessed — 

Cong. — Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from  his 
place. 

Reader. — From  thy  place  shine  forth,  O  our  King, 
and  reign  over  us,  for  we  wait  for  thee.  When  wilt 
thou  reign  in  Zion?  Speedily,  even  in  our  days,  do 
thou  dwell  there,  and  for  ever.  Mayest  thou  be  mag- 
nified and  sanctified  in  the  midst  of  Jerusalem  thy 
city  throughout  all  generations  and  to  all  eternity. 
O  let  our  eyes  behold  thy  kingdom,  according  to  the 
word  that  was  spoken  in  the  songs  of  thy  might  by 
David,  thy  righteous  anointed: 

Cong. — The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God^  O 
Zion,  unto  all  generations.     Praise  ye  the  Lord.

Reader. — Unto  all  generations  we  will  declare  thy 
greatness,  and  to  all  eternity  we  will  proclaim  thy  holi- 
ness, and  thy  praise,  O  our  God,  shall  not  depart  from 
our  mouth  for  ever,  for  thou  art  a  great  and  holy  God 
and  King.    Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  God. 

On  the  Sabbath  of  Penitence  conclude  the  Blessing  thus:— 
the  holy  King. 

Moses  rejoiced  in  the  gift  of  his  portion,  for 
thou  didst  call  him  a  faithful  servant :  a  diadem 
of  glory  didst  thou  place  upon  his  head,  wdien 
he  stood  before  thee  upon  Mount  Sinai;  and  in 
his  hand  he  brought  down  the  tv^o  tables  of 
stone,  upon  which  the  observance  of  the  Sab- 
bath was  prescribed,  and  thus  it  is  written  in 
thy  Law: 

Exodus  xxxi.  16,  17. 

And  the  children  of  Israel  shall  keep  the  Sab- 
bath, to  observe  the  Sabbath  throughout  their 
generations,  for  an  everlasting  covenant.  It  is 
a  sign  between  me  and  the  children  of  Israel 
for  ever,  that  in  six  days  the  Lord  made  the 
heavens  and  the  earih,  and  on  the  seventh  day 
he  rested,  and  ceased  from  his  work.

For  all  these  things  thy  name,  O  our  King, 
shall  be  continually  blessed  and  exalted  for  ever 
and  ever. 

On  the  Sabbath  of  Penitence  say: — ■ 

O  inscribe  all  the  children  of  thy  covenant  for  a 
happy  life. 

And  everything  that  liveth  shall  give  thanks 
unto  thee  for  ever,  and  shall  praise  thy  name 
in  truth,  O  God,  our  salvation  and  our  help. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  whose  name  is  All- 
good,  and  unto  whom  it  is  becoming  to  give 
thanks. 

At  the  repetition  of  the  Amidah  by  the  Reader  the  following 
is  introduced: — 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  bless  us  with  the 
three-fold  blessing  of  thy  Law  written  by  the  hand  of 
Moses  thy  servant,  which  was  spoken  by  Aaron  and  his 
sons,  the  priests,  thy  holy  people,  as  it  is  said.  The  Lord 
bless  thee,  and  keep  thee:  the  Lord  make  his  face  to 
shine  upon  thee,  and  be  gracious  unto  thee :  the  Lord 
turn  his  face  unto  thee,  and  give  thee  peace. 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  loving- 
kindness  and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Israel, 
thy  people.  Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all 
of  us  together,  with  the  light  of  thy  coun- 
tenance; for  by  the  light  of  thy  countenance 
thou  hast  given  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  the  Law

ORDER   OF   READING   THE    LAW   ON    SAB- 
BATHS AND  FESTIVALS. 

There  is  none  like  unto  thee  among  the  gods,  O 
Lord ;  and  there  are  no  works  like  unto  thine.  Thy 
kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  thy  dominion 
endureth  throughout  all  generations.  The  Lord  reign- 
eth ;  the  Lord  hath  reigned ;  the  Lord  shall  reign  for 
ever  and  ever.  The  Lord  will  give  strength  unto  his 
people ;  the  Lord  will  bless  his  people  with  peace. 

Father  of  mercies,  do  good  in  thy  favor  unto  Zion; 
build  thou  the  walls  of  Jerusalem.  For  in  thee  alone 
do  we  trust,  O  King,  high  and  exalted  God,  Lord  of 
worlds. 

The  Ark  is  Opened. 

Reader  and  Cong. — And  it  came  to  pass, 
ivhen  the  ark  set  forward,  that  Moses  said, 
Rise  up,  O  Lord,  and  thine  enemies  shall  be 
scattered,  and  they  that  hate  thee  shall  flee  be- 
fore thee.  For  out  of  Zion  shall  go  forth  the 
Law,  and  the  word  of  the  Lord  from  Jeru- 
salem.

Law  to  his  people  Israel. 

In  some   Congregations   the   following  is  said: — 
Zohar,   Parshath  Vayakhel. 

Blessed  be  the  name  of  the  Sovereign  of  the  uni- 
verse.  Blessed  be  thy  crown  and  thy  abiding-place. 
Let  thy  favor  rest  with  thy  people  Israel  for  ever: 
show  them  the  redemption  of  thy  right  hand  in  thy  holy 
temple.  Vouchsafe  unto  us  the  benign  gift  of  thy  light, 
and  in  mercy  accept  our  supplications.  May  it  be  thy 
will  to  prolong  our  life  in  well-being.  Let  me  also  be 
numbeied  among  the  righteous,  so  that  thou  mayest 
be  merciful  unto  me,  and  have  me  in  thy  keeping,  v/ith 
all  that  belong  to  me  and  to  thy  people  Israel.  Thou 
art  he  that  f eedeth  and  sustaineth  all ;  thou  art  he  that 
ruleth  over  all;  thou  art  he  that  ruleth  over  kings,  for 
dominion  is  thine.  I  am  the  servant  of  the  Holy  One, 
blessed  be  he,  before  whom  and  before  whose  glorious 
Law  I  prostrate  myself  at  all  times :  not  in  man  do  I 
put  my  trust,  nor  upon  any  angel  do  I  rely,  but  upon 
the  God  of  heaven,  who  is  the  God  of  truth,  and  whose 
Law  is  truth,  and  whose  prophets  are  prophets  of 
truth,  and  who  aboundeth  in  deeds  of  goodness  and 
truth.  In  him  I  put  my  trust,  and  unto  his  holy  and 
glorious  name  I  utter  praises.  May  it  be  thy  will  to 
open  my  heart  unto  thy  Law,  and  to  fulfil  the  wishes 
of  my  heart  and  of  the  hearts  of  all  thy  people  Israel 
for  good,  for  life,  and  for  peace-

209      MORNING  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS  AND  FESTIVALS 
On  Festivals  the  following  is  said:— 

The  Lord,  the  Lord  is  a  merciful  and  gracious  God, 
slow  to  anger  and  abounding  in  lovingkindness^  and 
truth ;  keeping  lovingkindness  for  thousands,  forgiving 
iniquity  and  transgression  and  sin.  (To  be  said  three 
times.) 

Lord  of  the  universe,  fulfil  the  wishes  of  my  heart 
for  good;  grant  my  desire,  give  me  my  request,  even 

unto  me,  thy  servant, the  son  of (thy  maid 

servant the  daughter  of ),  and  make  me  wor- 
thy (together  with  my  wife,)  (my  husband,)  (my 
children,)  to  do  thy  will  with  a  perfect  heart;  and  de- 
liver me  from  the  evil  inclination.  O  grant  our  por- 
tion in  thy  Law;  make  us  worthy  to  have  thy  divine 
presence  abiding  with  us ;  vouchsafe  unto  us  the  spirit 
of  wisdom  and  understanding,  the  spirit  of  counsel  and 
might,  the  spirit  of  knowledge  and  fear  of  the  Lord. 
So  also  may  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  that  I  may  be  fitted  to  do  such  deeds  as  are 
good  in  thy  sight,  and  to  walk  in  the  way  of  the  upright 
before  thee.  Sanctify  us  by  thy  commandments,  that 
we  may  merit  the  long  and  blessed  life  of  the  world  to 
come :  guard  us  from  evil  deeds,  and  also  from  evil 
hours  that  visit  and  afflict  this  world.  As  for  him  who 
trusteth  in  the  Lord,  let  lovingkindness  surround  him 
Amen. 

Let  the  words  of  my  mouth  and  the  meditation  of  my 
heart  be  acceptable  before  thee,  O  Lord,  my  Rock  and 
my  Redeemer. 

And  as  for  me,  may  my  prayer  unto  thee,  O  Lord, 
be  in  an  acceptable  time :  O  God,  in  the  abundance  of 
thy  lovingkindness,  answer  me  in  the  truth  of  thy 
salvation.

The  Reader  takes  the  Scroll  of  the  Law,  and  the  following 
is  said: — 

Reader  and  Cong. — Hear,  O  Israel:  the  Lord  our 
God,  the  Lord  is  One. 

Reader  and  Cong. — One  is  our  God;  great  is  our 
Lord ;  holy  is  his  name. 

Reader. — Magnify  the  Lord  with  me,  and  let  us  exali 
his  name  together. 

Reader  and  Cong. — Thine,  O  Lord,  is  the  greatness, 
and  the  power,  and  the  glory,  and  the  victory,  and  the 
majesty:  for  all  that  is  in  the  heaven  and  in  the  earth 
is  thine;  thine,  O  Lord,  is  the  kingdom,  and  the  su- 
premacy as  head  over  all.  Exalt  ye  the  Lord  our  God, 
and  worship  at  his  footstool :  holy  is  he.  Exalt  ye  the 
Lord  our  God,  and  worship  at  his  holy  mount ;  for  the 
Lord  our  God  is  holy. 

Magnified  and  hallowed,  praised  and  glorified,  ex- 
alted and  extolled  above  all  be  the  name  of  the  Supreme 
King  of  Kings,  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he,  in  the 
worlds  which  he  hath  created, — this  world  and  the 
world  to  come, — in  accordance  with  his  desire,  and 
with  the  desire  of  them  that  fear  him,  and  of  all  the 
house  of  Israel:  the  Rock  everlasting,  the  Lord  of  all 
creatures,  the  God  of  all  souls,  who  dwelleth  in  the 
wide-extended  heights,  who  inhabiteth  the  heaven  of 
heavens  of  old ;  whose  holiness  is  above  the  Chayoth 
and  above  the  throne  of  glory.  Now,  therefore,  thy 
name,  O  Lord  our  God,  shall  be  hallowed  amongst  us

in  the  sight  of  all  living.  Let  us  sing  a  new  song  be- 
fore him,  as  it  is  written,  Sing  unto  God,  sing  praises 
unto  his  name,  extol  ye  him  that  rideth  iipon  the  heav- 
ens by  his  name  Jah,  and  exult  before  him.  And  may 
we  see  him,  eye  to  eye,  when  he  returneth  to  his  habi- 
tation, as  it  is  written.  For  they  shall  see  eye  to  eye, 
when  the  Lord  returneth  unto  Zion.  And  it  is  said, 
And  the  glory  of  the  Lord  shall  be  revealed,  and  all 
flesh  shall  see  it  together;  for  the  mouth  of  the  Lord 
hath  spoken  it. 

May  the  Father  of  mercy  have  mercy  upon  a  people 
that  have  been  borne  by  him.  May  he  remember  the 
covenant  with  the  patriarchs,  deliver  our  souls  from 
evil  hours,  check  the  evil  inclination  in  them  that  have 
been  carried  by  him,  grant  us  of  his  grace  an  everlast- 
ing deliverance,  and  in  the  attribute  of  his  goodness 
fulfil  our  desires  by  salvation  and  mercy. 

The  Scroll  of  the  Lazv  is  placed  upon  the  desk,  and  the  Readei 
says  the  following : — 

And  may  he  help,  shield  and  save  all  who  trust  in 
him,  and  let  us  say.  Amen.  Ascribe  all  of  you  great- 
ness unto  our  God,  and  render  honor  to  the  Law. 

Here  the  Reader  names  the  Person  who  is  called  to  the 
Reading  of  the  Law. 

Blessed  be  he,  who  in  his  holiness  gave  the  Law 
unto  his  people  Israel.  The  Law  of  the  Lord  is 
perfect,  restoring  the  soul :  the  testimony  of  the  Lord 
is  faithful,  making  wise  the  simple.  The  precepts  of 
the  Lord  are  right,  rejoicing  the  heart:  the  com- 
mandment of  the  Lord  is  pure,  enlightening  the 
eyes.     The  Lord  will  g^ive  strength  unto  his  peopld.

by  sea  or  land,  in  captivity  or  sickness,  upon  their  deliver- 
ance or  recovery  say  the  following,  after  the  conclusion  of 
the  last  Blessing: — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  vouchsafest  benefits  unto  the  undeserving, 
who  hast  also  vouchsafed  all  good  unto  me. 

The  Congregation  respond: — 

He  who  hath  vouchsafed  all  good  unto  thee,  may  he 
vouchsafe  all  good  unto  thee  for  ever. 

The  following  is  said  by  the  Father  of  a  Bar-Mitzvah,  when 
the  latter  has  concluded  the  Blessing  after  having  been 
called  to  the  Reading  of  the  Law. 

Blessed  be  he  who  hath  freed  me  from  the  respon- 
sibility for  this  child.

And  this  is  the  Law  which  Moses  set  before  the  chil- 
dren of  Israel,  according  to  the  commandment  of  the 
Lord  by  the  hand  of  Moses.  It  is  a  tree  of  life  to  them 
that  grasp  it,  and  of  them  that  uphold  it  every  one  is 
rendered  happy.  Its  ways  are  ways  of  pleasantness, 
and  all  its  paths  are  peace.  Length  of  days  is  in  its 
right  hand ;  in  its  left  hand  are  riches  and  honor.  It 
pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  righteousness'  sake,  to  mag- 
nify the  Law  and  to  make  it  honorable. 

Before  the  Lesson  from  the  Prophets  the  following  is  said:— 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the

Blesed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni-

tions, O  faithful  God,  who  sayest  and  doest,  who 
speakest  and  fulfillest,  all  whose  words  are  truth  and 
righteousness.  Faithful  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God, 
and  faithful  are  thy  words,  and  not  one  of  thy  words 
shall  return  void,  for  thou  art  a  faithful  and  merciful 
God  and  King,  Blessed  art  thou,  O  i^ord,  God,  who 
art  faithful  in  all  thy  words. 

Have  mercy  upon  Zion,  for  it  is  the  home  of  our 
life,  and  save  her  that  is  grieved  in  spirit  speedily,  even 
in  our  days.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  makest 
Zion  joyful  through  her  children. 

Gladden  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  with  Elijah  the 
prophet,  thy  servant,  and  with  the  kingdom  of  the 
house  of  David,  thine  anointed.  Soon  may  he  come  and 
rejoice  our  hearts.  Suffer  not  a  stranger  to  sit  upon  his 
throne,  nor  let  others  any  longer  inherit  his  glory;  for 
by  thy  holy  name  thou  didst  swear  unto  him,  that  his 
light  should  not  be  quenched  for  ever.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  the  Shield  of  David.

The  Reader  takes  the  Scroll  of  the  Law,  and  says  the  follow- 
ing Prayer  for  the  Government. 

He  who  giveth  salvation  unto  kings  and  dominion 
unto  princes,  whose  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom, 
who  dehvered  his  servant  David  from  the  hurtful 
sword,  who  maketh  a  way  in  the  sea  and  a  path  in  the 
mighty  waters, — may  he  bless,  guard,  protect,  and  help, 
exalt,  magnify,  and  highly  aggrandize 

THE  CONSTITUTED  OFFICERS  OF  THIS 
GOVERNMENT. 

May  the  Supreme  King  of  Kings  in  his  mercy  pre 
serve  them  in  life  and  deliver  them  from  all  trouble 
and  hurt.  May  the  Supreme  King  of  Kings  in  his 
mercy  exalt  them  and  raise  them  on  high,  and  grant 
them  a  long  and  prosperous  rule.  May  the  Supreme 
King  of  Kings  in  his  mercy  inspire  them  and  all  their 
counsellors  and  officers  with  benevolence  toward  us 
and  all  Israel  our  brethren.  In  their  days  and  in  our< 
may  Judah  be  saved  and  Israel  dwell  securely;  and

be  his  will,  and  let  us  say.  Amen.

?2I      MORNING  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS  AND  FESTIVALS 

fn  many  Congregations  the  following  is  said  only  on  the 
Sabbaths  preceding  Pentcost  and  the  Fast  of  the  Ninth 
of  Ab:~ 

May  the  Father  of  mercies,  who  dwelleth  on  high  in  his 
mighty  compassion,  remember  those  loving,  upright  and 
blameless  ones,  the  holy  congregations,  who  laid  down  their 
lives  for  the  sanctification  of  the  divine  name,  who  were 
lovely  and  pleasant  in  their  lives,  and  in  their  death  were  not 
divided ;  swifter  than  eagles,  stronger  than  lions  to  do  the 
will  of  their  Master  and  the  desire  of  their  Rock.  May  our 
God  remember  them  for  good  with  the  other  righteous  of  the 
\vorld,  and  avenge  the  blood  of  his  servants  which  hath  been 
shed ;  as  it  is  written  in  the  Law  of  Moses,  the  man  of  God, 
Rejoice,  O  ye  nations,  with  his  people,  for  he  will  avenge  the 
blood  of  his  servants,  and  will  render  vengeance  to  his 
adversaries,  and  will  make  atonement  for  his  land  and  for  his 
people.  And  by  the  hands  of  thy  servants,  the  prophets, 
it  is  written  saying,  I  will  cleanse  their  blood  that  I  have  not 
yet  cleansed :  for  the  Lord  dwelleth  in  Zion.  And  in  the 
Holy  Writings  it  is  said.  Wherefore  should  the  nations  say, 
Where  is  their  God?  Let  there  be  made  known  among  the 
nations  in  our  sight  the  revenging  of  the  blood  of  thy  serv- 
ants which  hath  been  shed.  And  it  is  said,  For  he  that 
maketh  inquisition  for  blood  remembereth  them ;  he  f orgetteth 
not  the  cry  of  the  humble.  And  it  is  further  said.  He  judgeth 
among  the  nations;  the  land  is  full  of  corpses:  he  smiteth 
the  head  over  a  wide  land.  He  drinketh  of  the  brook  in  the 
way:  therefore  shall  he  lift  up  the  head. 

HRppy  are  they  that  dwell  in  thy  house:  they  will 
be  ever  praising  thee.     (Selah.) 

Happy  is  the  people,  that  is  in  such  a  case :  happy  is 
the  people,  whose  God  is  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxlv.     A  Psalm  of  Praise:  of  David. 

I  will  extol  thee,  my  God,  O  King;  and  I  will  bless 
jhy  name  for  ever  and  ever.

222      MORNING  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS  AND  FESTIVALS 

Every  day  will  I  bless  thee;  and  I  will  praise  thy 
name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Great  is  the  Lord,  and  exceedingly  to  be  praised: 
and  his  greatness  is  unsearchable. 

One  generation  shall  laud  thy  works  to  another,  and 
shall  declare  thy  mighty  acts. 

On  the  majestic  glory  of  thy  grandeur,  and  on  thy 
marvellous  deeds,  will  I  meditate. 

And  men  shall  speak  of  the  might  of  thy  awful  acts ; 
and  I  will  recount  thy  greatness. 

They  shall  pour  forth  the  fame  of  thy  great  goodness, 
and  shall  exult  in  thy  righteousness. 

The  Lord  Is  gracious  and  merciful;  slow  to  anger 
and  of  great  lovingkindness. 

The  Lord  Is  good  to  all ;  and  his  tender  mercies  are 
over  all  his  works. 

All  thy  works  shall  give  thanks  unto  thee,  O  Lord ; 
and  thy  loving  ones  shall  bless  thee. 

They  shall  speak  of  the  glory  of  thy  kingdom,  and 
talk  of  thy  power. 

To  make  known  to  the  sons  of  men  his  mighty  acts, 
and  the  majestic  glory  of  his  kingdom. 

Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  thy 
dominion  endureth  throughout  all  generations. 

The  Lord  upholdeth  all  that  fall,  and  ralseth  up  all 
those  that  are  bowed  down. 

The  eyes  of  all  wait  upon  thee ;  and  thou  givest  them 
their  food  in  due  season. 

Thou  openest  thine  hand  and  satlsfiest  every  living 
thing  with   favor. 

The  Lord  is  righteous  In  all  his  ways,  and  loving  in 
all  his  works.

223      MORNING  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS  AND  FESTIVALS 

The  Lord  is  nigh  unto  all  them  that  call  upon  him, 
to  all  that  call  upon  him  in  truth. 

He  will  fulfil  the  desire  of  them  that  fear  him;  he 
also  will  hear  their  cry,  and  will  save  them. 

The  Lord  guardeth  all  them  that  love  him;  but  all 
the  wicked  will  he  destroy. 

My  mouth  shall  speak  of  the  praise  of  the  Lord ;  and 
let  all  flesh  bless  his  holy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

But  we  will  bless  the  Lord  from  this  time  forth  and 
for  evermore.     Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

On  returning  the  Scroll  of  the  Law  to  the  Ark  the  Reader 
says: — 

Let  them  praise  the  name  of  the  Lord ;  for  his  name 
alone  is  exalted : 

Congregation. — His  grandeur  is  above  the  earth  and 
heaven:  and  he  hath  lifted  up  a  horn  for  his  people, 
to  the  praise  of  all  his  loving  ones,  even  of  the  children 
of  Israel,  the  people  near  unto  him.  Praise  ye  the 
Lord. 

On  Sabbaths  and  on  Festivals  occurring  on  Sabbaths  say: — 

Psalm  xxix. 

A  Psalm  of  David.  Give  unto  the  Lord,  O  ye  chil- 
dren of  the  mighty,  give  unto  the  Lord  glory  and 
strength.  Give  unto  the  Lord  the  glory  due  unto  his 
name  ;  worship  the  Lord  in  the  beauty  of  holiness.  The 
voice  of  the  Lord  is  upon  the  waters :  the  God  of  glory 
<Jiundereth,   even    the   Lord   upon   the   great   waters

The  voice  of  the  Lord  is  powerful;  the  voice  of  the 
Lord  is  full  of  majesty.  The  voice  of  the  Lord  break- 
eth  the  cedars;  yea,  the  Lord  breaketh  in  pieces  the 
cedars  of  Lebanon.  He  maketh  them  also  to  skip  like 
a  calf ;  Lebanon  and  Sirion  like  a  young  wild-ox.  The 
voice  of  the  Lord  cleaveth  flames  of  fire ;  the  voice  of 
the  Lord  maketh  the  wilderness  to  tremble;  the  Lord 
maketh  tremble  the  wilderness  of  Kadesh.  The  voice 
of  the  Lord  maketh  the  hinds  to  travail,  and  strippeth 
the  forests  bare:  and  in  his  temple  everything  saith, 
Glory.  The  Lord  sat  as  king  at  the  flood;  yea,  the 
Lord  sitteth  as  king  for  ever.  The  Lord  will  give 
strength  unto  his  people ;  the  Lord  will  bless  his  people 
with  peace. 

On  Festivals  occurring  on  Week-days  say: — 

Psalm  xxiv. 

A  Psalm  of  David.  The  earth  is  the  Lord's,  and  the 
fulness  thereof ;  the  world,  and  they  that  dwell  therein. 
For  it  is  he  that  hath  founded  it  upon  the  seas,  and 
established  it  upon  the  floods.  Who  may  ascend  the 
mountain  of  the  Lord  ?  And  who  may  stand  in  his  holy 
place?  He  that  hath  clean  hands  and  a  pure  heart; 
who  hath  not  set  his  desire  upon  vanity,  and  hath  not 
sworn  deceitfully.  He  shall  receive  a  blessing  from 
the  Lord,  and  righteousness  from  the  God  of  his  sal- 
vation. This  is  the  generation  of  them  that  seek  after 
him,  that  seek  thy  face  (O  God  of)  Jacob!  (Selah.) 
Lift  up  your  heads,  O  ye  gates;  and  be  ye  lifted  up, 
ye  everlasting  doors,  that  the  King  of  glory  may  come 
in.  Who,  then,  is  the  King  of  glory  ?  The  Lord  strong 
and  mighty,  the  Lord  mighty  in  battle.     Lift  up  your

is  the  King  of  glory?  The  Lord  of  hosts,  he  is  the 
King  of  glory.     (Selah.) 

While   the  Scroll  of  the  Law  is  being  placed  in  the  Ark, 
the  following  to  "as  of  old"  is  said: — 

And  when  it  rested,  he  said.  Return,  O  Lord,  unto 
the  ten  thousands  of  the  thousands  of  Israel.  Arise, 
O  Lord,  unto  thy  resting  place ;  thou,  and  the  ark  of 
thy  strength.  Let  thy  priests  be  clothed  with  righteous- 
ness ;  and  let  thy  loving  ones  shout  for  joy.  For  the 
sake  of  David  thy  servant,  turn  not  away  the  face  of 
thine  anointed.  For  I  give  you  good  doctrine ;  forsake 
ye  not  my  Law.  It  is  a  tree  of  life  to  them  that  grasp 
it,  and  of  them  that  uphold  it  every  one  is  rendered 
happy.  Its  ways  are  ways  of  pleasantness,  and  all  its 
paths  are  peace.  Turn  thou  us  unto  thee,  O  Lord,  and 
we  shall  return :  renew  our  days  as  of  old. 

Reader. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great  narne 
in  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according  to  his 
will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during  your  life 
and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life  of  all  the 
house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a  near  time,  and 
say  ye,  Amen. 

Cong,  and  Reader. — Let  his  great  name  be  blessed 
for  ever  and  to  all  eternity. 

Reader. — Blessed,  praised  and  glorified,  exalted,  ex- 
tolled and  honored,  magnified  and  lauded  be  the  name 
of  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he;  though  he  be  high 
above  all  the  blessings  and  hymns,  praises  and  consola- 
tions, which  are  uttered  in  the  world ;  and  say  ye, 
Amen.

ness,  quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  sup- 
portest  the  falHng,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the 
bound,  and  keepest  thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep

mighty  acts,  and  who  resembleth  thee,  O  King, 
who  killest  and  quickenest,  and  causest  salva- 
tion to  spring  forth? 

On  the  Sabbath  of  Penitence  say: — 

Who  is  like  unto  thee,  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  remembcrest  thy  creatures  unto  life? 

Yea,  faithful  art  thou  to  quicken  the  dead. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the 
dead.* 

Thou  art  holy,  and  thy  name  is  holy,  and  holy 
beings  praise  thee  daily.  (Selah.)  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy  God. 

On  the  Sabbath  of  Penitence,  conclude  the  Blessing  thus: —

Cong. — Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts:  the 
whole  earth  is  full  of  his  glory. 

Reader. — His  glory  filleth  the  universe:  his  minis-

his  glory  ?      Those  over  against  them  say,  Blessed — 

Cong. — Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from  his 
place. 

Reader. — From  his  place  may  he  turn  in  mercy  and 
be  gracious  unto  a  people  who,  evening  and  morning, 
twice  every  day,  proclaim  with  constancy  the  unity  of 
his  name,  saying  in  love,  Hear — 

Cong. — Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord

Reader. — One  is  our  God ;  he  is  our  Father ;  he  is 
our  King ;  he  is  our  Saviour ;  and  he  of  his  mercy  will 
let  us  hear  a  second  time,  in  the  presence  of  all  living

Thou  didst  institute  the  Sabbath,  and  didst 
accept  its  offerings;  thou  didst  command  its 
special  obligations  with  the  order  of  its  drink 
offerings.  They  that  find  delight  in  it  shall  in-

Sinai  they  were  commanded  concerning  it ;  and 
thou  hast  also  commanded  us,  O  Lord  our  God, 

On  Sabbath  and  New  Moon. 

Thou  didst  form  thy  v^orld  from  of  old;  thou 
hadst  finished  thy  work  on  the  seventh  day ;  thou 
hast  loved  us  and  taken  pleasure  in  us,  hast  exalted 
us  above  all  tongues,  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy 
commandments,  hast  brought  us  near,  O  our  King 
unto  thy  service,  and  called  us  by  thy  great  and 
holy  name.  Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  also  gavest  us 
in  love  Sabbaths  for  rest  and  New  Moons  for  atone-

we  and  our  fathers,  our  city  hath  been  laid  waste, 
our  sanctuary  is  desolate,  our  splendor  hath  gone

Talmud  Babli :   Treatise  Cerithoth  6,  a. 

The  compound  forming  the  incense*  consisted  of 
balm,  onycha,  galbanum  and  frankincense,  in  quan- 
tities weighing  seventy  manehs  each ;  of  myrrh, 
cassia,  spikenard  and  saffron,  each  sixteen  manehs 
by  weight ;  of  costus  twelve,  of  aromatic  bark  three, 
and  of  cinnamon  nine  manehs ;  of  lye  obtained 
from  a  species  of  leek,  nine  kabs ;  of  Cyprus  wine 
three  seahs  and  three  kabs :  though,  if  Cyprus  wine 
was  not  procurable,  old  white  wine  might  be  used ; 
of  salt  of  Sodom  the  fourth  part  of  a  kab,  and  of 
the  herb  Maaleh  Ashan  a  minute  quantity.  R. 
Nathan  says,  a  minute  quantity  was  also  required 
of  the  odoriferous  herb  Cippath,  that  grew  on  the 
banks  of  the  Jordan ;  if,  however,  one  added  honey 
to  the  mixture,  he  rendered  the  incense  unfit  for 
sacred  use,  while  he  who,  in  preparing  it,  omitted 
one  of  its  necessary  ingredients,  was  liable  to  the 
penalty  of  death.  Rabban  Simeon,  son  of  Gamaliel, 
says,  the  balm  is  a  resin  that  exudes  from  the  wood 
of  the  balsam  tree.  The  lye  obtained  from  a  species 
of  leek  was  rubbed  over  the  onycha  to  improve  it, 
while  the  Cyprus  wine  was  used  to  steep  it  in, 
so  that  its  odor  might  be  more  pungent. 

Mishnah :   End  of  Treatise  Tamid. 

These  were  the  Psalms  which  the  Levites  used  to 
recite  in  the  Temple — 

On  the  first  day  of  the  week  they  used  to  recite 
(Psalm  xxiv.),  The  earth  is  the  Lord's  and  the  ful- 
ness thereof;  the  world  and  they  that  dwell  therein. 

On  the  second  day  (Psalm  xlviii.),  Great  is  the 
Lord  and  exceedingly  to  be  praised,  in  the  city  of 
our  God,  in  his  holy  mountain.

Talmud  Babli.     End  of  Treatise  Berachoth. 

R.  Eleazer  said  in  the  name  of  R.  Chanina,  The 
disciples  of  the  sages  increase  peace  throughout  the 
world,  as  it  is  said.  And  all  thy  children  shall  be 
taught  of  the  Lord ;  and  great  shall  be  the  peace 
of  thy  children.  Read  not  here  hanayich,  thy  chil- 
dren (or  disciples),  but  honayich,  thy  builders. — 
Great  peace  have  they  who  love  thy  Law ;  and 
there  is  no  stumbling  for  them.  Peace  be  within 
thy  rampart,  prosperity  within  thy  palaces.  For 
my  brethren  and  companions'  sake,  I  would  fain 
speak  peace  concerning  thee.  For  the  sake  of  the 
house  of  the  Lord  our  God  I  would  seek  thy  good. 
The  Lord  will  give  strength  unto  his  people;  the 
Lord  will  bless  his  people  with  peace. 

It  is  our  duty  to  praise  the  Lord  of  all  things,  to 
ascribe  greatness  to  him  who  formed  the  world 
in  the  beginning,  since  he  hath  not  made  us  like  the 
nations    of    other    lands,    and    hath    not    placed    us

like  other  families  of  the  earth,  since  he  hath  not 
assigned  unto  us  a  portion  as  unto  them,  nor  a 
lot  as  unto  all  their  multitude.  For  we  bend  the 
knee  and  offer  worship  and  thanks  before  the  su- 
preme King  of  kings,  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be 
he,  who  stretched  forth  the  heavens  and  laid  the 
foundations  of  the  earth,  the  seat  of  whose  glory  is 
in  the  heavens  above,  and  the  abode  of  whose 
might  is  in  the  loftiest  heights.  He  is  our  God ; 
there  is  none  else:  in  truth  he  is  our  King;  there 
is  none  besides  him  ;  as  it  is  written  in  his  Law,  And 
thou  shalt  know  this  day,  and  lay  it  to  thine  heart, 
that  the  Lord  he  is  God  in  heaven  above  and  upon 
the  earth  beneath :  there  is  none  else. 

We  therefore  hope  in  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  that 
we  may  speedily  behold  the  glory  of  thy  might, 
when  thou  wilt  remove  the  abominations  from  the 
earth,  and  the  idols  will  be  utterly  cut  off,  when  the 
world  will  be  perfected  under  the  kingdom  of  the 
Almighty,  and  all  the  children  of  flesh  will  call 
upon  thy  name,  when  thou  wilt  turn  unto  thyself 
all  the  wicked  of  the  earth.  Let  all  the  inhabitants 
of  the  world  perceive  and  know  that  unto  thee 
every  knee  must  bow,  every  tongue  must  swear. 
Before  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  let  them  bow  and 
fall;  and  unto  thy  glorious  name  let  them  give 
honor;  let  them  all  accept  the  yoke  of  thy  king- 
dom, and  do  thou  reign  over  them  speedily,  and 
for  ever  and  ever.  For  the  kingdom  is  thine,  and 
to  all  eternitv  thou  wilt  reign  in  glory;  as  it  is 
written  in  thy  Law,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever

King  over  all  the  earth  :  in  that  day  shall  the  Lord 
be  One,  and  his  name  One. 

The  following  Kaddish  is  said  by  a  Mourner. 

And  now,  I  pray  thee,  let  the  power  of  the  Lord 
be  great,  according  as  thou  hast  spoken.  Remem- 
ber, O  Lord,  thy  tender  mercies  and  thy  lovingkind- 
nesses ;  for  they  have  been  ever  of  old. 

Mourner. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great 
name  in  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according 
to  his  will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during 
your  life  and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life 
of  all  the  house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a  near 
time,  and  say  ye,  Amen. 

Cong,  and  Mourner. — Let  his  great  name  be  blessed 
for  ever  and  to  all  eternity. 

Mourner. — Blessed,  praised  and  glorified,  exalted, 
extolled  and  honored,  magnified  and  lauded  be  the 
name  of  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he ;  though  he  be 
high  above  all  the  blessings  and  hymns,  praises  and 
consolations,  which  are  uttered  in  the  world  ;  and 
say  ye.  Amen. 

Cong. — Let  the  name  of  the  Lord  be  blessed  from 
this  time  forth  and  for  evermore. 

Mourner. — May  there  be  abundant  peace  from 
heaven  and  life  for  us  and  for  all  Israel ;  and  say 
ye,  Amen. 

Cong. — My  help  is  from  the  Lord,  who  made  heaven 
and  earth. 

Mourner. — He  who  maketh  peace  in  his  high  places, 
may  he  make  peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel ;  and 
say  ye,  Amen.

He  is  Lord  of  the  universe,  who  reigned  ere  any 
creature  yet  v^as  formed: 

At  the  time  when  all  things  were  made  by  his 
desire,  then  was  his  name  proclaimed  King. 

And  after  all  things  shall  have  had  an  end,  he 
alone,  the  dreaded  one,  shall  reign ; 

Who  was,  who  is,  and  who  will  be  in  glory. 

And  he  is  One,  and  there  is  no  second  to  compare 
to  him,  to  consort  with  him: 

Without  beginning,  without  end;  to  him  belong 
strength  and  dominion. 

And  he  is  my  God — my  Redeemer  liveth — and  a 
rock  in  my  travail  in  time  of  distress; 

And  he  is  my  banner  and  my  refuge,  the  portion 
of  my  cup  on  the  day  when  I  call. 

Into  his  hand  I  commend  my  spirit,  when  I  sleep 
and  when  T  wake ; 

And  with  my  spirit,  my  body  also :  the  Lord  is 
with  me,  and  I  will  not  fear. 


UNITY  HYMN  FOR  THE  SABBATH  DAY 

fn  some  Congregations  the  following  is  said  before  "Blessed 
be  he  who  spake,"  p.   19. 

Of  old  thou  didst  rest  on  the  seventh  day;  thou  didst  there- 
fore bless  the  Sabbath. 

•  For  every  work  of  thine  praise  is  prepared   for  thee ;   thy 
loving  ones  bless  thee  at  all  times. 

Blessed  be  the  Lord,  the  Maker  of  them  all,  the  living  God 
and  everlasting  King. 

For  from  of  old  there  hath  rested  upon  thy  servants   the 
abundance  of  thy  mercies  and  thy  loving  kindnesses. 

But   in   Egypt   thou   didst  begin   to   make  known   that   thou 
art  exalted  far. 

Above  all  gods,  when  thou  didst  execute  great  judgment: 
'apon  the  Egyptians  and  upon  their  gods.

When  thou  didst  cleave  the  Red  Sea,  thy  people  saw  thy 
great  hand,   and  they   feared. 

Thou  didst  guide  thy  people,  so  that  thou  mightest  make 
unto  thyself  a  name  of  glory  to  manifest  thy  greatness. 

Thou  spakest  also  with  them  from  the  heavens,  when  the 
clouds  dropped  water. 

Thou  knewest  their  wanderings  in  the  wilderness,  in  a 
land  of  drought,  where  none  passed  through. 

Thou  gavest  to  thy  people  the  corn  of  heaven,  flesh 
abundant  as  the  dust,  and  water  from  the  rock. 

Thou  didst  drive  out  many  nations,  and  they  took  posses- 
sion of  their  land  and  of  the  labor  of  the  peoples; 

That  they  might  observe  thy  statutes  and  laws,  the  words 
of  the  Lord,  which  are  pure  words. 

And  they  delighted  themselves  with  fat  pastures,  and  with 
rivers   of   oil   from  the  flinty   rock. 

When  they  rested,  they  built  thy  holy  city,  and  adorned 
the  house  of  thy   sanctuary. 

Then  thou  saidst,  Here  will  I  dwell  for  length  of  days: 
I  will  surely  bless  her  provision. 

There  they  shall  sacrifice  sacrifices  of  righteousness;  thj'- 
pilests  also  shall  be  clothed  with  righteousness. 

The  house  of  Levi  also  shall  chant  pleasant  songs;  they 
shall  shout   for  joy  and   sing  unto  thee. 

The  house  of  Israel  and  they  that  fear  the  Lord  shall  give 
glory   and  thanks  unto  thy  name,   O   Lord. 

Thou  hast  dealt  out  exceeding  kindness  to  the  earliest 
ages;  deal  thus  kindly  also  with  the  latest. 

O  Lord,  rejoice  over  us,  even  as  thou  didst  rejoice  over  our 
fathers. 

To  multiply  us  and  deal  kindly  with  us  ;  and  we  will  for- 
ever  give   thanks   unto   thee    for   thy   goodness. 

O  Lord,  rebuild  thy  city  speedily,  for  it  is  called  by  thy 
name. 

And  make  the  horn  of  David  to  flourish  therein,  and  dwell 
in  the  midst  thereof  for  ever,  O  Lord. 

There  we  will  offer  sacrifices  of  righteousness,  and  ther^ 
-^ay  our  oblation  be  pleasant  as  in  former  days.

O  bless  thy  people  with  the  light  of  thy  countenance;  for 
they  desire  to  do  thy  will. 

And  in  thy  good  will  fulfil  our  desire;  look,  we  beseech 
thee,  we  are  thy  people,  all  of  us. 

Thou  hast  chosen  us  to  be  unto  thee  a  treasured  people :  let 
thy  blessing  be  upon  thy  people  for  ever. 

And  we  will  continually  declare  thy  praise,  and  praise  thy 
glorious  name. 

Of  thy  blessing  let  thy  people  be  blessed,  for  every  one  whom 
thou  blessest  is  blessed. 

As  for  me,  while  I  have  my  being,  I  will  praise  my  Creator, 
and  I  will  bless  him  all  the  days  of  my  appointed  time. 

Let  the  name  of  the  Lord  be  blessed  for  ever,  from  ever- 
lasting even  to  everlasting. 

As  it  is  written :  Blessed  be  the  Lord,  the  God  of 
Israel,  from  everlasting  even  to  everlasting.  And 
all  the  people  said,  Amen,  and  praised  the  Lord. 
Daniel  answered  and  said.  Blessed  be  the  name  of 
God  for  ever  and  ever:  for  wisdom  and  might  are 
his.  And  it  is  said :  Then  the  Levites,  Jeshua,  Kad- 
miel,  Bani,  Hashabneiah,  Sherebiah,  Hodiah,  Sheba- 
niah,  and  Pethahiah  said.  Stand  up  and  bless  the  Lord 
your  God  from  everlasting  to  everlasting :  and  let  them 
bless  thy  glorious  name,  that  is  exalted  above  all 
blessing  and  praise.  And  it  is  said :  Blessed  be  the 
Lord,  the  God  of  Israel,  from  everlasting  even  to 
everlasting:  and  let  all  the  people  say,  Amen :  praise 
ye  the  Lord.  And  it  is  said,  And  David  blessed  the 
Lord  in  the  presence  of  all  the  congregation:  and 
David  said,  blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  the  God  of 
Israel  our  father,  from  everlasting  to  everlasting.

HYMN  OF  GLORY. 

The  Ark   is  opened  and   the  following  Hymn  is  chanted  in 
alternate  verses  by  the  Reader  and  Congregation. 

I  will  chant  sweet  hymns  and  compose  songs ;  for  my  soul 
nanteth  after  thee. 

My  soul  hath  longed  to  be  beneath  the  shadow  of  thy  hand, 
to  know  all  thy  secret  mysteries. 

Even  whilst  I  speak  of  thy  glory,  my  heart  yearneth  for  thy 
love. 

Therefore  will  I  speak  glorious  things  of  thee,  and  will 
honor  thy  name  with  songs  of  love. 

I  will  declare  thy  glory,  though  I  have  not  seen  thee ;  under 
images  will  I  describe  thee,  though  I  have  not  known  thee. 

By  the  hand  of  thy  prophets,  in  the  mystic  utterance  of  thy 
servants,  thou  hast  imaged  forth  the  grandeur  and  the  glory 
of  thy  majesty. 

Thy  greatness  and  thy  might  they  described  in  accordance 
with  the  power  made  manifest  in  thy  acts. 

In  images  they  told  of  thee,  but  not  according  to  thine 
essence;  they  but  likened  thee  in  accordance  with  thy  works. 

They  figured  thee  in  a  multitude  of  visions ;  behold  thou  art 
One  under  all  images. 

They  saw  in  thee  both  age  and  youth,*  the  hair  of  thy  head 
now  grey  as  in  old  age,  now  black  as  in  youth. 

Age  in  the  day  of  judgment,  and  youth  in  the  day  of  battle; 
US  a  man  of  war  he  striveth  with  his  hands : 

He  hath  bound  a  helmet  of  victory  upon  his  head  ;  his  right 
hand,  and  his  holy  arm,  hath  wrought  victory  for  him : 

With  dew  of  light  his  head  is  filled,  and  his  locks  with  drops 
of  the  night. 

He  shall  be  glorified  by  me  for  he  delighteth  in  me;  yea, 
he  shall  be  to  me  a  crown  of  beauty. 

His  head  is  like  fine,  pure  gold ;  upon  his  forehead  is  im- 
pressed the  glory  of  his  holy  name. 

*In  regard  to  these  and  the  following  expressions,  compare 
Daniel  vii.  9;  Exod.  xv.  3;  Song  of  Solomon  v.  2,  14;  Isaian 
lix.  17;  Psalm  xcviii.  1.

247  ADDITIONAL    SERVICE    FOR    SABBATHS 

For  grace  and  glory,  beauty  and  splendor  his  people  hath 
encircled  him  with  a  crown. 

The  plaited  hair  of  his  head  seemed  as  in  the  days  of 
youth,  his  black  locks  were  flowing  in  curls. 

The  abode  of  righteousness — his  glorious  beauty — may  he 
prefer  it  above  his  chiefest  joy. 

May  his  treasured  people  be  a  crown  in  his  hand,  a  royal 
diadem  of  glorious  beauty. 

They  were  borne  by  him,  he  carried  them ;  with  a  crown  he 
adorned  them ;  for  that  they  were  precious  in  his  sight  he 
honored  them. 

His  glory  resteth  upon  me,  and  mine  upon  him ;  and  he  is 
nigh  unto  me,  when  I  cry  unto  him. 

He  is  bright  and  ruddy  in  red  apparel,  when  he  cometh  from 
treading  the  winepress  in  Edom.f 

The  symbol  of  his  all-embracing  providence  he  showed  to 
the  meek  Moses,  when  the  similitude  of  the  Lord  was  before 
his  eyes. 

Taking  pleasure  in  his  people,  he  will  glorify  the  meek; 
that,  dwelling  amid  praises,  he  may  be  glorified  by  them. 

The  sum  of  thy  word  is  truth ;  O  thou,  who  hast  called 
every  generation  from  the  beginning,  seek  the  people  that 
seeketh  thee. 

Accept,  I  beseech  thee,  the  multitude  of  my  songs,  and  let 
my  joyous  cry  come  near  unto  thee. 

Let  my  praise  be  a  crown  unto  thy  head,  and  my  prayer  be 
set  forth  before  thee  as  incense. 

Let  the  song  of  the  poor  be  precious  in  thy  sight  as  the  song 
that  was  sung  at  thy  offerings. 

May  my  blessing  rise  to  the  bountiful  God,  who  createth 
and  produceth,  who  is  just  and  mighty. 

And  when  I  bless  thee,  incline  thine  head  unto  me,  and 
take  what  I  offer  as  though  it  were  the  choicest  spices. 

May  my  meditation  be  pleasant  unto  thee,  for  my  soul 
panteth   after  thee.

248  ADDITIONAL    SERVICE    FOR    SABBATHS  i 

Psalm  xcii. 

A  Psalm,  a  Song  for  the  Sabbath  Day.     It  is  a 
good  thing  to  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord,  and  to  sing 
praises  unto  thy  name,  O   Most  High :  to  declare 
thy  lovingkindness  in  the  morning,  and  thy  faithful- 
ness every  night,  w^ith  an  instrument  of  ten  strings 
and  v^ith  a  harp,  with  thoughtful  music  upon  the 
lyre.      For   thou,    O    Lord,   hast   made   me   rejoice 
through  thy  work:  I  will  exult  in  the  works  of  thy 
hands.     How  great  are  thy  works,   O   Lord :  thy 
thoughts  are  very  deep.    A  brutish  man  knoweth  it 
not,  neither  doth  a  fool  understand  this :  when  the 
wicked  sprang  up  as  the  grass,  and  all  the  workers 
of  iniquity   flourished,   it  was   that  they  might  be 
destroyed  for  ever.     But  thou,  O  Lord,  art  on  high 
for  evermore.     For,  lo,  thine  enemies,  O  Lord,  for, 
lo,  thine  enemies  shall  perish ;  all  the  workers  of 
iniquity  shall  be  scattered.     But  my  horn  hast  thou 
exalted,  like  that  of  the  wild-ox :  I  am  anointed  with 
fresh  oil.     Mine  eye  also  hath  seen  my  desire  on 
mine  enemies;  mine  ears  have  heard  my  desire  of 
them  that  rose  up  against  me,  doers  of  evil.     The 
righteous  shall  spring  up  like  a  palm-tree;  he  shall 
grow  tall  like  a  cedar  in  Lebanon.     Planted  in  the 
house  of  the  Lord,  they  shall  blossom  in  the  courts 
of  our  God.    They  shall  still  shoot  forth  in  old  age ; 
they  shall  be  full  of  sap  and  green :  to  declare  that 
the  Lord  is  upright;  he  is  my  rock,  and  there  is  no 
unrighteousness  in  him.

KIDDUSH  FOR  SABBATH  MORNING. 


Exodus  xxxi.  16,  17. 

And  the  children  of  Israel  shall  keep  the  Sab- 
bath, to  observe  the  Sabbath  throughout  their  gen- 
erations, for  an  everlasting  covenant.  It  is  a  sign 
between  me  and  the  children  of  Israel  for  ever, 
that  in  six  days  the  Lord  made  the  heavens  and  the 
earth,  and  on  the  seventh  day  he  rested,  and  ceased 
from  his  w^ork. 

Exod.  XX.  8—11. 

Remember  the  sabbath  day  to  kep  it  holy.  Six 
days  shalt  thou  labor,  and  do  all  thy  work :  but 
the  seventh  day  is  a  sabbath  unto  the  Lord  thy 
God :  in  it  thou  shalt  not  do  any  work,  thou,  nor 
thy  son,  nor  thy  daughter,  thy  man-servant,  nor  thy 
maidservant,  nor  thy  cattle,  nor  thy  stranger  that 
is  within  thy  gates :  for  in  six  days  the  Lord  made 
heaven  and  earth,  the  sea  and  all  that  is  therein, 
and  rested  on  the  seventh  day;  wherefore  the  Lord 
blessed  the  sabbath  day  and  hallowed  it. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  createst  the  fruit  of  the  vine. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  bringest  forth  bread  from  the  earth.

AFTERNOON  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS.  | 

Happy  are  they  that  dwell  in  thy  house :  they  will  b^ 
ever  praising  thee.     (Selah.) 

Happy  is  the  people,  that  is  in  such  a  case :  happy  is 
the  people,  whose  God  is  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxlv.    A  Psalm  of  Praise :  of  David. 

I  will  extol  thee,  my  God,  O  King;  and  I  will  bless 
thy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Every  day  will  I  bless  thee ;  and  I  will  praise  thy 
name  for  ever  and  ever. 

Great  is  the  Lord,  and  exceedingly  to  be  praised: 
and  his  greatness  is  unsearchable. 

One  generation  shall  laud  thy  works  to  another,  and 
shall  declare  thy  mighty  acts. 

On  the  majestic  glory  of  thy  grandeur,  and  on  thy 
marvellous  deeds,  will  I  meditate. 

And  men  shall  speak  of  the  might  of  thy  awful  acts ; 
and  I  will  recount  thy  greatness. 

They  shall  pour  forth  the  fame  of  thy  great  good- 
ness, and  shall  exult  in  thy  righteousness. 

The  Lord  is  gracious  and  merciful ;  slow  to  anger 
and  of  great  lovingkindness. 

The  Lord  is  good  to  all ;  and  his  tender  mercies  are  | 
over  all  his  works. 

All  thy  works  shall  give  thanks  unto  thee,  O  Lord;! 
and  thy  loving  ones  shall  bless  thee. 

They  shall  speak  of  the  glory  of  thy  kingdom,  and 
talk  of  thy  power. 

To  make  known  to  the  sons  of  men  his  mighty  acts, 
and  the  majestic  glory  of  his  kingdom.

Thy  kingdom  is  an  everlasting  kingdom,  and  thy  do- 
minion endureth  throughout  all  generations. 

The  Lord  upholdeth  all  that  fall,  and  raiseth  up  all 
those  that  are  bowed  down. 

The  eyes  of  all  wait  upon  thee ;  and  thou  givest  them 
their  food  in  due  season. 

Thou  openest  thine  hand,  and  satisfiest  every  living 
thing  with  favor. 

The  Lord  is  righteous  in  all  his  ways,  and  loving 
in  all  his  works. 

The  Lord  is  nigh  unto  all  them  that  call  upon  him, 
to  all  that  call  upon  him  in  truth. 

He  will  fulfil  the  desire  of  them  that  fear  him;  he 
also  will  hear  their  cry,  and  will  save  them. 

The  Lord  guardeth  all  them  that  love  him;  but  all 
the  wicked  will  he  destroy. 

My  mouth  shall  speak  of  the  praise  of  the  Lord; 
and  let  all  flesh  bless  his  holy  name  for  ever  and  ever. 

But  we  will  bless  the  Lord  from  this  time  forth  and 
for  evermore.     Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

And  a  redeemer  shall  come  to  Zion  and  to  them  that 
turn  from  transgression  in  Jacob,  saith  the  Lord.  And 
as  for  me,  this  is  my  covenant  wnth  them,  saith  the 
Lord :  my  spirit  that  is  upon  thee,  and  my  words  which 
I  have  put  in  thy  mouth,  shall  not  depart  out  of  thj 
mouth,  nor  out  of  the  mouth  of  thy  seed,  nor  out  of  the 
mouth  of  thy  seed's  seed,  saith  the  Lord,  from  hence* 
forth  and  for  ever.

But  thou  art  holy,  O  thou  that  dwellest  amid  the 
praises  of  Israel.     And  one  cried  unto  another,   and 
said.  Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts :  the  whole 
earth  is  full  of  his  glory.    *And  they  receive  sanction 
the  one  from  the  other,  and  say.  Holy  in  the  highest 
heavens,   the   place   of   his   divine   abode;   holy   upon 
earth,  the  work  of  his  might;  holy  for  ever  and  to  all 
eternity  is  the  Lord  of  hosts;  the  whole  earth  is  full 
of  the  radiance  of  his  glory.     Then  a  wind  lifted  me 
up,  and  I  heard  behind  me  the  voice  of  a  great  rushing 
(saying),  Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from  his 
place.    *Then  a  wind  lifted  me  up,  and  I  heard  behind 
me  the  voice  of  a  great  rushing,  of  those  who  uttered 
praises,  and  said,  Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord 
from  the  region  of  his  divine  abode.     The  Lord  shall 
reign  for  ever  and  ever.     *The  kingdom  of  the  Lord 
endureth  for  ever  and  to  all  eternity.     O  Lord,  the 
God  of  Abraham,  of  Isaac  and  of  Israel,  our  fathers, 
keep  this  for  ever  in  the  imagination  of  the  thoughts 
of  the  heart  of  thy  people,  and  direct  their  heart  unto 
thee.     And  he,  being  merciful,  forgiveth  iniquity  and 
destroyeth  not :  yea,  many  a  time  he  turneth  his  anger 
away,  and  doth  not  stir  up  all  his  wrath.     For  thou,.' 
O  Lord,  art  good  and  forgiving,  and  abounding  in  lov- 
ingkindness  to  all  them  that  call  upon  thee.    Thy  right- 
eousness is  an  everlasting  righteousness,  and  thy  Law 
is  truth.     Thou  wilt  show  truth  to  Jacob  and  loving- 
kindness  to  Abraham,  according  as  thou  hast  sworn 
unto    our    fathers    from   the    days    of    old.      Blessed 
be    the    Lord    day    by    day;    if    one    burdeneth    us,

God  is  our  salvation.  (Selah.)  The  Lord  of  hosts  is 
with  us ;  the  God  of  Jacob  is  our  stronghold.  (Selah.) 
O  Lord  of  hosts,  happy  is  the  man  who  trusteth  in 
thee.  Save,  Lord:  may  the  King  answer  us  on  the 
day  when  we  call.  Blessed  is  our  God,  who  hath  cre- 
ated us  for  his  glory,  and  hath  separated  us  from  them 
that  go  astray,  and  hath  given  us  the  Law  of  truth  and 
planted  everlasting  life  in  our  midst.  May  he  open 
our  heart  unto  his  Law,  and  place  his  love  and  fear 
within  our  hearts,  that  we  may  do  his  will  and  serve 
him  with  a  perfect  heart,  that  we  may  not  labor  in 
vain,  nor  bring  forth  for  confusion.  May  it  be  thy 
will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  that  we 
may  keep  thy  statutes  in  this  world,  and  be  worthy  to 
live  to  witness  and  inherit  happiness  and  blessing  in 
the  days  of  the  Messiah  and  in  the  life  of  the  world 
to  come.  To  the  end  that  my  glory  may  sing  praise 
unto  thee,  and  not  be  silent :  O  Lord  my  God,  I  will 
give  thanks  unto  thee  for  ever.  Blessed  is  the  man 
that  trusteth  in  the  Lord,  and  whose  trust  the  Lord  is. 
Trust  ye  in  the  Lord  for  ever ;  for  in  J  ah  the  Lord  is 
an  everlasting  rock.  And  they  that  know  thy  name 
will  put  their  trust  in  thee ;  for  thou  hast  not  forsaken 
them  that  seek  thee.  Lord.  It  pleased  the  Lord,  for 
his  righteousness'  sake,  to  magnify  the  Law  and  to 
make  it  honorable. 

Reader. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great  name

falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and  keepest 
thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.  Who  is  like

one  unto  the  other  and  said, 

Cong. — Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts :  the 
whole  earth  is  full  of  his  glory.

Thou  art  One  and  thy  name  is  One,  and  who  is  like 
thy  people  Israel,  an  unique  nation  on  the  earth  ?  Glo- 
rious greatness  and  a  crown  of  salvation,  even  the  day 
of  rest  and  holiness,  thou  hast  given  unto  thy  people: 
— Abraham  was  glad,  Isaac  rejoiced,  Jacob  and  his 
sons  rested  thereon: — a  rest  vouchsafed  in  generous

tenance  may  we  be  remembered  and  inscribed  before 
thee,  we  and  all  thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  for  a

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  blessest  thy  people 
Israel  with  peace.  I  <

O  my  God !  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my  lips 
from  speaking  guile ;  and  to  such  as  curse  me  let  my 
soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all  as  the  dust. 
Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,  and  let  my  soul  pursue 
thy  commandments.  If  any  design  evil  against  me, 
speedily  make  their  counsel  of  none  effect,  and  frus- 
trate their  designs.  Do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  name,  do 
it  for  the  sake  of  thy  right  hand,  do  it  for  the  sake  of 
thy  holiness,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  Law.  In  order 
that  thy  beloved  ones  may  be  delivered,  O  save  with 
Ihy  right  hand,  and  answer  me.  Let  the  words  of  my 
mouth  and  the  meditation  of  my  heart  be  acceptable 
before  thee,  O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer.  He 
who  maketh  peace  in  his  high  places,  may  he  make 
peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel,  and  say  ye.  Amen. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  that  the  temple  be  speedily  rebuilt  in  our  days, 
and  grant  our  portion  in  thy  Law.  And  there  we  will 
serve  thee  with  awe,  as  in  the  days  of  old,  and  as  in 
ancient  years.  Then  shall  the  offering  of  Judah  and 
Jerusalem  be  pleasant  unto  the  Lord,  as  in  the  days 
of  old,  and  as  in  ancient  years. 

The  follozvlng  is  omitted  on  such  occasions  as  those  on  which

262       AFTERNOON  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS 

It  is  our  duty  to  praise  the  Lord  of  all  things,  to 
ascribe  greatness  to  him  who  formed  the  world  in  the 
beginning,  since  he  hath  not  made  us  like  the  nations 
of  other  lands,  and  hath  not  placed  us  like  other  fami- 
lies of  the  earth,  since  he  hath  not  assigned  unto  us  a 
portion  as  unto  them,  nor  a  lot  as  unto  all  their  multi- 
tude. For  we  bend  the  knee  and  offer  worship  and 
thanks  before  the  supreme  King  of  kings,  the  Holy 
One,  blessed  be  he,  who  stretched  forth  the  heavens 
and  laid  the  foundations  of  the  earth,  the  seat  of  whose 
glory  is  in  the  heavens  above,  and  the  abode  of  whose 
might  is  in  the  loftiest  heights.  He  is  our  God ;  there 
is  none  else:  in  truth  he  is  our  King;  there  is  none 
besides  him ;  as  it  is  written  in  his  Law,  And  thou  shalt 
know  this  day,  and  lay  it  to  thine  heart,  that  the  Lord 
he  is  God  in  heaven  above  and  upon  the  earth  beneath : 
there  is  none  else. 

We  therefore  hope  in,  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  that  we 
may  speedily  behold  the  glory  of  thy  might,  when  thou 
wHlt  remove  the  abominations  from  the  earth,  and  the 
idols  will  be  utterly  cut  off,  when  the  world  will  be 
perfected  under  the  kingdom  of  the  Almighty,  and  all 
the  children  of  flesh  will  call  upon  thy  name,  when  thou 
wilt  turn  unto  thyself  all  the  wicked  of  the  earth.  Let 
all  the  inhabitants  of  the  world  perceive  and  know  that 
unto  thee  every  knee  must  bow,  every  tongue  must 
swear.  Before  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  let  them  bow 
and  fall;  and  unto  thy  glorious  name  let  them  give 
honor;  let  them  all  accept  the  yoke  of  thy  kingdom, 
and  do  thou  reign  over  them  speedily,  and  for  ever

F7'07n  the  Sabbath  after  "the  Rejoicing  of  the  Law"  until  the 
Sabbath  before  Passover,  the  following  Psalms  are  read  : — 
Psalm  civ 
Bless  the  Lord,  O  my  soul:  O  Lord  my  God,  thou 
art  very  great;  thou  hast  robed  thee  m  splendor  and 
majesty.    He  covereth  himself  with  light  as  with  a  gar- 
ment ;  he  stretcheth  out  the  heavens  like  a  curtain :  he 
layeth  the  beams  of  his  upper  chambers  in  the  waters ; 
he  maketh  the  clouds  his  chariot ;  he  walketh  upon  the 
wings  of  the  wind.    He  maketh  winds  his  messengers ; 
liis  ministers  flaming  fire:  he  founded  the  earth  upon 
its  bases,  that  it  might  not  be  moved  for  ever.     Thou 
didst  cover  it  with  the  deep  as  with  a  vesture;  the 
waters  stood  above  the  mountains.    At  thy  rebuke  they 
fled;  at  the  voice  of  thy  thunder  they  hasted  away. 
The  mountains  rose,  the  valleys  sank  unto  the  place 
vdiich  thou  hadst  founded  for  them.    Thou  hast  set  a 
bound  that  they  may  not  pass  over;  that  they  turn  not 
again  to  cover  the  earth.     He  sendeth  forth  springs 
into  the  valleys  ;  they  run  among  the  mountains.    They 
give  drink  to  every  beast  of  the  plain  ;  the  v/ild  asses 
quench  their  thirst.     By  them  the  birds  of  the  heaven 
have  their  dwelling,  they  utter  their  voice  from  among 
the  branches.    He  giveth  drink  to  the  mountains  from 
his  upper  chambers :  the  earth  is  satisfied  with  the  fruit 
of  thy  works.    He  causeth  grass  to  grow  for  the  cattle, 
and  herbs  for  the  service  of  man ;  that  he  may  bring 
forth  bread  from  the  earth ;  and  wine  that  maketh  glad 
the  heart  of  man,  and  oil  to  make  his  face  to  shine,  and 
bread  that  strengtheneth  man's  heart.    The  trees  of  the 
Lord  are  satisfied;  the  cedars  of  Lebanon  which  he 
hath  planted ;  where  the  birds  make  their  nests :  as  for 
the  stork,  the  fir  trees  are  her  house.    The  high  moun- 
tains are  for  the  wild  goats;  the  rocks  are  a  refus^e 
for  the  conies.     He  made  the  moon  for  seasons:  the 
sun  knoweth  its  going  down.     Thou  makest  darkness, 
and  it  is  night;  wherein  all  the  beasts  of  the  forest  do 
IV ore.    The  voung  lions  roar  after  their  prey,  and  seek 
their  food  from  God.    The  sun  ariseth,  they  get  thero

away,  and  lay  them  down  in  their  dens.  Man  goeth 
forth  unto  his  work  and  to'  his  labor  until  the  evening, 
How  manifold  are  thy  works,  O  Lord!  In  wisdom 
hast  thou  made  them  all:  the  earth  is  full  of  thy  pos- 
sessions. Yonder  is  th?  sea,  great  and  of  wide  extent ; 
therein  are  moving  things  innumerable,  living  crea- 
tures both  small  and  great.  There  tlfft  ships  make  their 
course ;  there  is  leviathan  whom  thou  hast  formed  to 
sport  therein.  These  all  wait  upon  thee,  that  thou  may- 
est  give  them  their  food  in  due  season.  Thou  givest 
unto  them,  they  gather ;  thou  openest  thine  hand,  they 
are.  satisfied  with  good.  Thou  hidest  thy  face,  they 
are  confounded ;  thou  gatherest  in  their  breath,  they 
die,  and  return  to  their  dust.  Thou  sendest  forth  thy 
spirit,  they  are  created;  and  thou  renewest  the  face 
of  the  ground.  Let  the  glory  of  the  Lord  endure  for 
ever;  let  the  Lord  rejoice  in  his  works.  He  looketh 
on  the  earth,  and  it  trembleth ;  he  toucheth  the  moun- 
tains, and  they  smoke.,  I  will  sing  unto  the  Lord  as 
long  as  I  live ;  I  will  sing  praise  to  my  God  while  I 
have  my  being.  May  my  meditation  be  sweet  unto 
him:  as  for  me,  I  will  rejoice  in  the  Lord.  Sinners 
shall  be  consumed  out  of  the  earth,  and  the  wicked 
shall  be  no  more.  Bless  the  Lord,  O  my  soul:  praise 
ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxx. 
A  Song  of  Degrees.  In  my  distress  I  cried  unto  the 
Lord,  and  he  answered  me.  Deliver  my  soul,  O  Lord, 
from  a  lying  lip,  and  from  a  deceitful  tongue.  What 
shall  he  give  unto  thee,  and  v/hat  shall  he  add  unto 
thee,  thou  deceitful  tongue?  Sharpened  arrows  of  a 
mighty  man  with  coals  of  juniper.  Woe  is  me,  that  I 
sojourn  in  Mesech,  that  I  dwell  am.ong  the  tents  of 
Kedar.  My  soul  hath  full  long  had  her  dwelling  with 
him  that  hateth  peace.  1  am  all  peace;  but  when  I 
speak,  they  are  for  war.   ,

266  AFTERNOON    SERYiICE    FOR    SABBATHS 

from  the  Lord,  the  maker  of  heaven  and  earth.  He 
will  not  suffer  thy  foot  to  slip :  he  that  guardeth  thee 
will  not  slumber.  Behold,  he  that  guardeth  Israel  will 
neither  slumber  nor  sleep.  The  Lord  is  thy  guardian : 
the  Lord  is  thy  shade  upon  thy  right  hand.  The  sun 
shall  not  smite  thee  by  day,  nor  the  moon  by  night. 
The  Lord  shall  guard  thee  from  all  evil ;  he  shall  guard 
thy  soul.  The  Lord  shall  guard  thy  going  out  and  thy 
coming  in,  from  this  time  forth  and  for  evermore. 

Psalm  cxxii. 
A  Song  of  Degrees ;  of  David.  I  was  glad  when 
they  said  unto  me,  Let  us  go  unto  the  house  of  the 
Lord.  Our  feet  stood  within  thy  gates,  O  Jerusalem; 
Jerusalem  that  art  built  up  as  a  city  that  is  compact 
together:  whither  the  tribes  go  up,  even  the  tribes  of 
the  Lord,  for  a  testimony  unto  Israel,  to  give  thanks 
unto  the  name  of  the  Lord.  For  there  are  set  thrones 
for  judgment,  the  thrones  of  the  house  of  David.  Pray 
for  the  peace  of  Jerusalem ;  may  they  prosper  that  love 
thee.  Peace  be  within  thy  rampart,  prosperity  within 
thy  palaces.  For  my  l)rethren  and  companions'  sakes 
I  would  fain  speak  peace  concerning  thee.  For  the 
sake  of  the  house  of  the  Lord  our  God  I  would  seek 
thy  good. 

Psalm  cxxiii. 

A  Song  of  Degrees.  Unto  thee  do  I  lift  up  mine 
eyes,  O  thou  that  dwellest  in  the  heavens.  Behold,  as 
the  eyes  of  servants  look  unto  the  hand  of  their  mas- 
ter, as  the  eyes  of  a  maiden  unto  the  hand  of  her  mis- 
tress, so  our  eyes  look  unto  the  Lord  our  God,  until  he 
liave  pity  upon  us.  Have  pity  upon  us,  O  Lord,  have 
■oity  upon  us :  for  we  are  full  sated  with  contempt.  Our 
soul  is  full  sated  with  the  mocking  of  those  that  are  at 
ease,  with  the  contempt  of  the  proud. 
Psalm  cxxiv. 

A  Song  of  Degrees;  of  David.     If  it  had  not  been 
the  Lord  who  was  on  our  side,  let  Israel  now  say:

if  it  had  not  been  the  Lord  who  was  on  our  side,  when 
men  rose  up  against  us,  then  they  had  swallowed  us  up 
alive,  when  their  wrath  was  kindled  against  us ;  then 
the  waters  had  overwhelmed  us,  the  stream  had  gone 
over  our  soul ;  then  the  proud  waters  had  gone  over  our 
soul.  Blessed  be  the  Lord,  who  hath  not  given  us  a 
prey  to  their  teeth.  Our  soul  escaped  as  a  bird  out  of 
the  snare  of  the  fowlers :  the  snare  was  broken,  and  we 
escaped.  Our  help  is  in  the  name  of  the  Lord,  who 
made  heaven  and  earth. 

Psalm  cxxv. 

A  Song  of  Degrees.  They  that  trust  in  the  Lord 
are  as  Mount  Zion,  which  cannot  be  moved,  but  abideth 
for  ever.  The  mountains  are  round  about  Jerusalem, 
and  the  Lord  is  round  about  his  people,  from  this  time 
forth  and  for  evermore.  For  the  sceptre  of  wickedness 
shall  not  rest  upon  the  lot  of  the  righteous,  that  the 
righteous  put  not  forth  their  hands  unto  iniquity.  Do 
good,  O  Lord,  unto  those  that  are  good,  and  to  them 
that  are  upright  in  their  hearts.  But  as  for  such  as 
turn  aside  unto  their  crooked  ways,  the  Lord  will  de- 
stroy them  with  the  workers  of  iniquity.  Peace  be 
upon  Israel. 

Psalm  cxxvi. 

A  Song  of  Degrees.  When  the  Lord  turned  again 
the  captivity  of  Zion,  we  were  like  unto  them  that 
dream.  Then  was  our  mouth  filled  with  laughter,  and 
our  tongue  with  exultation :  then  said  they  among  the 
nations,  The  Lord  hath  done  great  things  for  them. 
The  Lord  hath  done  great  things  for  us ;  whereat  we 
rejoiced.  Bring  back  our  captivity,^  O  Lord,  as  the 
streams  in  the  south.  They  that  so\\  in  tears  shall  reap 
in  joy.  Though  he  goeth  on  his  way  weeping,  bearing 
the  store  of  seed,  he  shall  come  back  with  joy,  bearing  . 
his  sheaves.

26S  AFTERNOON    SERVICE    FOR    SaBBATHS 

Psalm  cxxvii. 

A  Song-  of  Degrees ;  of  Solomon.  Except  the  Lord 
bnild  the  house,  they  labor  in  vain  that  build  it :  except 
the  Lord  watch  over  the  city,  the  watchman  waketh 
but  in  vain.  It  is  vain  for  you  to  rise  up  early,  and  so 
late  take  rest,  and  eat  the  bread  of  toil :  such  things  he 
giveth  unto  his  beloved  in  sleep.  Lo,  children  are  an 
heritage  of  the  Lord :  the  fruit  of  the  womb  is  his  re- 
ward. As  arrows  in  the  hand  of  a  mighty  man,  so  are 
the  children  of  youth.  Happy  is  the  man  that  hath 
filled  his  quiver  with  them :  they  shall  not  be  ashamed, 
when  they  speak  with  enemies  in  the  gate. 
Psalm  cxxvili. 

A  Song  of  Degrees.  Happy  is  every  one  that  feareth 
the  Lord,  that  walketh  in  his  ways.  When  thou  shalt 
eat  the  labor  of  thine  hands,  happy  shalt  thou  be,  and 
it  shall  be  well  with  thee.  Thy  wife  shall  be  as  a  fruit- 
ful vine,  in  the  recesses  of  thine  house:  thy  children 
like  olive  plants,  round  about  thy  table.  Behold  thus 
shall  the  man  be  blessed  that  feareth  the  Lord.  May 
the  Lord  bless  thee  out  of  Zion :  mayest  thou  see  the 
good  of  Jerusalem  all  the  days  of  thy  life.  Yea,  may- 
est thou  see  thy  children's  children.     Peace  be  upon 

Israel. 

Psalm  cxxix. 

A  Song  of  Degrees.  To  the  full  have  they  af- 
flicted me  from  my  youth  up,  let  Israel  now  say;  to 
the  full  have  they  afflicted  me  from  my  youth  up :  yet 
have  they  not  prevailed  against  me.  The  plowers 
plowed  upon  mv  back,  they  made  long  their  furrows. 
The  Lord  is  righteous :  he  hath  cut  asunder  the  cords 
of  the  wicked.  Let  them  be  ashamed  and  turned  back- 
ward, all  they  that  hate  Zion.  Let  them  be  as  the  grass 
upon  the  housetops,  which  withereth  before  it  shooteth 
forth:  wherewith  the  mower  filleth  not  his  hand, 
\ior  he   that   oindeth  sheaves  his   bosom:   neither  do

they  which  go  by  say,  The  blessing  of  the  Lord  be 
upon  you;  we  bless  you  in  the  name  of  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxxx. 

A  Song  of  Degrees.  Out  of  the  depths  have  I  cried 
unto  thee,  O  Lord.  Lord,  hear  my  voice :  let  thine 
ears  be  attentive  to  the  voice  of  my  supplications.  If 
thou,  Lord,  shouldst  mark  iniquities,  O  Lord,  who 
could  stand?  But  there  is  forgiveness  with  thee,  that 
thou  mayest  be  feared.  I  wait  for  the  Lord,  my  soul 
doth  wait,  and  in  his  word  do  I  hope.  My  soul  waiteth 
for  the  Lord,  more  than  watchmen  wait  for  the  morn- 
ing ;  yea,  more  than  watchmen  for  the  morning.  O  let 
Israel  hope  in  the  Lord ;  for  with  the  Lord  there  is  lov- 
ingkindness,  and  with  him  is  plenteous  deliverance. 
And  he  shall  deliver  Israel  from  all  his  iniquities. 

Psalm  rxxxi. 

A  Song  of  Degrees ;  of  David.  Lord,  my  heart  is  not 
haughty,  nor  mine  eyes  lofty,  neither  do  I  exercise  my- 
self in  great  matters,  or  in  things  too  marvellous  for  me. 
Surely  I  have  stilled  and  quieted  my  soul,  like  a  weaned 
child  with  his  mother ;  my  soul  is  with  me  like  a 
weaned  child.  O  Israel,  hope  in  the  Lord  from  this 
time  forth  and  for  evermore. 

Psalm  cxxxii, 

A  Song  of  Degrees.  Lord,  remember  for  David  all 
his  affliction ;  how  he  sware  unto  the  Lord,  and  vowed 
unto  the  Mighty  One  of  Jacob:  Surely  I  will  not  come 
into  the  tent  of  my  house,  nor  go  up  unto  the  couch  of 
my  rest ;  I  will  not  give  sleep  to  mine  eyes,  or  slumber 
to  mine  eyelids ;  until  I  find  out  a  place  for  the  Lord, 
a  habitation  for  the  Mighty  One  of  Jacob.  Lo,  we 
heard  of  it  in  Ephrathah :  we  found  it  in  the  fields  of 
Jaar.     Let  us  go  into  his  habitation;  let  us  worship

at  his  footstool.  Arise,  O  Lord,  unto  thy  resting. 
place;  thou,  and  the  ark  of  thy  strength.  Let  th) 
priests  be  clothed  with  righteousness ;  and  let  thy  lov- 
ing ones  exult.  For  the  sake  of  David  thy  servant 
turn  not  away  the  face  of  thine  anointed.  The  Lord 
hath  sworn  unto  David  in  truth — he  will  not  turn  from 
it — :  of  the  fruit  of  thy  body  will  I  set  upon  thy 
throne.  If  thy  children  will  keep  my  covenant,  and 
my  testimonies  that  I  shall  teach  them,  their  children 
also  shall  sit  upon  thy  throne  for  evermore.  For  the 
Lord  hath  chosen  Zion ;  he  hath  desired  it  for  his  habi- 
tation. This  is  my  resting-place  for  ever:  here  will  I 
dwell ;  for  I  have  desired  it.  I  will  abundantly  bless 
her  provision :  I  will  satisfy  her  needy  with  bread. 
Her  priests  also  will  I  clothe  with  salvation ;  and  her 
loving  ones  shall  exult  aloud.  There  will  I  make  a 
horn  to  spring  forth  unto  David :  I  have  prepared  a 
lamp  for  mine  anointed.  His  enemies  will  I  clothe 
with  shame ;  but  upon  him  his  crown  shall  shine. 
Psalm  cxxxiii. 

A  Song  of  Degrees;  of  David.  Behold,  how  good 
and  pleasant  it  is  for  brethren  to  dwell  together  in 
unity !  It  is  like  the  goodly  oil  upon  the  head,  that  run- 
neth down  upon  the  beard,  even  Aaron's  beard;  that 
runneth  down  upon  the  skirt  of  his  garments ;  like  the 
dew  of  Hermon,  that  runneth  down  upon  the  moun- 
tains of  Zion:  for  there  the  Lord  commandeth  the 
blessing,  even  life  for  evermore. 
Psalm  cxxxiv. 

A  Song  of  Degrees.  Behold,  bless  ye  the  Lord,  all 
ye  servants  of  the  Lord,  who  stand  in  the  house  of  the 
Lord  in  the  night  seasons.  Lift  up  your  hards  towards 
the  sanctuary,  and  bless  ye  the  Lord.  The  Lord  bless 
thee  out  of  Zion ;  even  he  that  made  heaven  and  earth.

ETHICS  OF  THE  FATHERS. 

One  of  the  following  chapters  is  read  on  each  Sabbath  from 

the  Sabbath  after  Passover  until  the  Sabbath  before 

New   Year. 

All  Israel  have  a  portion  in  the  world  to  come,  as  it  is  said 
(Isaiah  Ix,  21),  And  thy  people  shall  be  all  righteous;  they 
shall  inherit  the  land  for  ever,  the  branch  of  my  planting, 
the  work  of  my  hands,  that  I  may  be  glorified. 

Chapter  I. 

(1.)  Moses  received  the  Torah*  on  Sinai,  and  handed  it 
down  to  Joshua;  Joshua  to  the  elders;  the  elders  to  the 
prophets ;  and  the  prophets  handed  it  down  to  the  men  of  the 
Great  Synagogue.  They  said  three  things :  Be  deliberate  in 
judgment;  raise  up  many  disciples,  and  make  a  fence  round 
the  Torah.  (2.)  Simon  the  Just  was  one  of  the  last  sur- 
vivors of  the  Great  Synagogue.  He  used  to  say.  Upon  three 
things  the  world  is  based :  upon  the  Torah,  upon  tne  Tempk 
Bervice,  and  upon  the  practice  of  charity.  (3.)  Antigonos  ot 
Socho  received  the  tradition  from  Simon  the  Just.  He  used 
to  say.  Be  not  like  servants  who  minister  to  their  master 
Upon  the  condition  of  receiving  a  reward;  but  be  like  servants 
who  minister  to  their  master  without  the  condition  of  receiv- 
ing a  reward;  and  let  the  fear  of  Heaven  be  upon  you.  (4.) 
Jose,  the  son  of  Joezer,  of  Zeredah,  and  Jose,  the  son  of 
Jochanan,  of  Jerusalem,  received  the  tradition  from  the  pre- 
ceding. Jose,  the  son  of  Joezer,  of  Zeredah,  said.  Let  thy 
house  be  a  meeting  house  for  the  wise;  sit  amidst  the  dust 
of  their  feet,  and  drmk  their  words  with  thirst.  (5.)  Jose, 
the  son  of  Jochanan,  of  Jerusalem,  said,  Let  thy  house  be 
Open  wide;  let  the  poor  be  the  members  of  thy  household, 


*The  word  Torah  is  left  untranslated.  It  is  variousl>  used

and  engage  not  in  much  gossip  with   women.     This  applies 
even  to  one's  own  wife;  how  much  more  then  to  the  wife  of 
one's  neighbor.    Hence  the  sages  say,  Whoso  engages  in  much 
gossip    with    women  brings   evil   upon   himself,    neglects   the 
study  of  the  Torah,  and  will  in  the  end  inherit  Gehinnom. 
(6.)   Joshua,  the  son  of  Perachyah,  and  Nittai,  the  Arbelite, 
received  the  tradition  from  the  preceding.    Joshua,  the  son  of 
"Perachyah,   said,   Provide  thyself  a  teacher,   and  get  thee  a 
companion,  and  judge  all   men   in  the   scale  of  merit.      (7.) 
Nittai,  the  Arbelite,  said.  Keep  thee  far  from  a  bad  neighbor, 
associate  not  with  the  wicked,  and  abandon  not  the  belief  in 
retribution.     (8.)  Judah,  the  son  of  Tabbai,  and  Simeon,  the 
son  of   Shatach,   received  the  tradition    from  the  preceding. 
Judah,  the  son  of  Tabbai,  said,  (In  the  judge's  office)  act  not 
the  counsel's  part;   when  the  parties  to  a  suit  are   standing 
before  thee,  let  them  both  be  regarded  by  thee  as  guilty,  but 
when  they  are  departed  from  thy  presence,  regard  them  both 
as  innocent,  the  verdict  having  been  acquiesced  in  by  them. 
(9.)   Simeon,  the  son  of  Shatach,  said,  Be  very  searching  in 
the  examination,  of  witnesses,  and  be  heedful  of  thy  words, 
lest  through  them  they  learn  to  falsify.     (10.)   Shemayah  and 
Abtalyon      received      the     tradition      from      the      preceding. 
Shemayah  said.  Love  work,  hate  lordship,  and  seek  no  inti- 
macy with  the  ruling  power.     (11.)  Abtalyon  said.  Ye  sages, 
be  heedful  of  your  words,  lest  ye  incur  the  penalty  of  exile 
and  be  exiled  to  a  place  of  evil  waters,  and  the  disciples  who 
come   after  you    drink    thereof    and   die,    and    the    Heavenly 
Name  be  profaned.     (12.)   Hillol  and  Shammai  received  the 
tradition  from  the  preceding.     Hillel  said,  Be  of  the  disciples 
of  Aaron,  loving  peace  and  pursuing  peace,  loving  thy  fellow- 
creatures,  and  drawing  them  near  to  t^e  Torah.     (13.)    He

used  to  say,  A  name  made  great  is  a  name  destroyed ;  he  who 
does  not  increase  his  knowledge  decreases  it;  and  he  who 
does  not  study  deserves  to  die;  and  he  who  makes  a  worldly 
use  of  the  crown  of  the  Torah  shall  waste  away,  (14.)  He 
used  to  say,  If  I  am  not  for  myself,  who  will  be  for  me? 
And  being  for  my  own  self,  what  am  I?  And  if  not  now, 
when?  (15).  Shammai  said.  Fix  a  period  for  thy  study  of  the 
Torah;  say  little  and  do  much;  and  receive  all  men  with  a 
cheerful  countenance,  (16.)  Rabban  Gamaliel  said.  Provide 
thyself  a  teacher,  and  be  quit  of  doubt,  and  accustom  not 
thyself  to  give  tithes  by  a  conjectural  estimate,  (17.)  Simeon, 
his  son,  said.  All  my  days  I  have  grown  up  amongst  the  wise, 
and  I  have  found  nought  of  better  service  than  silence;  not 
learning  but  doing  is  the  chief  thing;  and  whoso  is  profuse 
of  words  causes  sin.  (18.)  Rabban  Simeon,  the  son  of 
Gamaliel,  said.  By  three  things  is  the  world  preserved:  by 
truth,  by  judgment,  and  by  peace,  as  it  is  said,  Judge  ye  the 
truth  and  the  judgment  of  peace  in  your  gates  (Zech.  viii.  16). 

Rabbi  Chananya,  the  son  of  Akashya,  said,  The  Holy  One, 
blessed  be  he,  was  pleased  to  make  Israel  worthy;  wherefore 
he  gave  them  a  copious  Torah  and  many  commandments,  as  it 
is  said.  It  pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  righteousness'  sake,  to 
magnify  the  Torah  and  make  it  honorable  (Isaiah  xlii,  21). 

Chapter  II, 

All  Israel  have  a  portion  in  the  world  to  come,  as  it  is  said 
(Isaiah  Ix.  21),  And  thy  people  shall  be  all  righteous;  they 
shall  inherit  the  land  for  ever,  the  branch  of  my  planting,  the 
work  of  my  hands,  that  I  may  be  glorified. 

(1.)  Rabbi  said.  Which  is  the  right  course  that  a  man 
should  choose  for  himself?  That  which  he  feels  to  be  hon- 
-prable  to  hitnself,  and  which  also  brings  him  honor  from  man-

kind.  Be  heedful  of  a  light  precept  as  of  a  grave  one,  for 
thou  knowest  not  the  grant  of  reward  for  each  precept. 
Reckon  the  loss  incurred  by  the  fulfilment  of  a  precept  against 
the  reward  secured  by  its  observance,  and  the  gain  gotten  by 
a  transgression  against  the  loss  it  involves.  Reflect  upon  three 
things,  and  thou  wilt  not  come  within  the  power  of  sin : 
Know  what  is  above  thee — a  seeing  eye,  and  a  hearing  ear, 
and  all  thy  deeds  written  in  a  book.  (2.)  Rabban  Gamaliel, 
the  son  of  Rabbi  Judah  the  Prince,  said,  An  excellent  thing 
is  the  study  of  the  Torah  combined  with  some  worldly  occupa- 
tion, for  the  labor  demanded  by  them  both  makes  sin  to  be 
forgotten.  All  study  of  the  Torah  without  work  must  in  the 
end  be  futile  and  become  the  cause  of  sin.  Let  all  who  are 
employed  with  the  congregation  act  with  them  for  Heaven's 
sake,  for  then  the  merit  of  their  fathers  sustains  them,  and 
iheir  righteousness  endures  for  ever.  And  as  for  you,  (God 
will  then  say,)  I  account  you  worthy  o*f  great  reward,  as  if 
you  had  wrought  it  all  yourselves.  (3.)  Be  on  your  guard 
against  the  ruling  power;  for  they  who  exercise  it  draw 
no  man  near  to  them  except  for  their  own  interests ;  appearing 
as  friends  when  it  is  to  their  own  advantage,  they  stand  not 
by  a  man  In  the  hour  of  his  need.  (4.)  He  used  to  say.  Do 
His  will  as  if  it  were  thy  will,  that  He  may  do  thy  will  as  if  it 
were  His  will.  Nullify  thy  will  before  His  will,  that  He  may 
nullify  the  will  of  others  before  thy  will.  (5)  Hillel  said. 
Separate  not  thyself  from  the  congregation;  trust  not  in  thy- 
self until  the  day  of  thy  death;  judge  not  thy  neighbor  until 
thou  art  come  into  his  place ;  and  say  not  anything  which 
cannot  be  understood  at  once,  in  the  hope  that  it  will  be 
understood  in  the  end;  neither  say,  When  I  have  leisure  I 
will  study;  perchance  thou  wilt  have  no  leisure.  (6.)  He 
used  to  say.  An  empty-headed  man  cannot  be  a  sin  fearing 
man,  nor  can  an  ignorant  person  be  pious,  nor  can  a 
shamefaced    man    learn,    nor    a   passionate   man    teach,    not

can  one  who  is  engaged  overmuch  in  business  grow  wise.  In 
a  place  where  there  are  no  men,  strive  to  be  a  man.  (7.) 
Moreover,  he  saw  a  skull  floating  on  the  surface  of  the 
water:  he  said  to  it,  Because  thou  drownedst  others,  they  have 
drowned  thee,  and  at  the  last  they  that  drowned  thee  shall 
themselves  be  drowned.  (8.)  He  used  to  say.  The  more  flesh, 
the  more  worms ;  the  more  property,  the  more  anxiety ;  the 
more  women,  the  more  witchcraft;  the  more  maid-servants, 
the  more  lewdness;  the  more  men-servants,  the  more  robbery; 
— the  more  Torah,  the  more  life;  the  more  schooling,  the 
more  wisdom ;  the  more  counsel,  the  more  understanding ;  the 
more  charity,  the  more  peace.  He  who  has  acquired  a  good 
name,  has  acquired  it  for  himself;  he  who  has  acquired  for 
himself  words  of  Torah,  has  acquired  for  himself  life  in  the 
world  to  come.  (9.)  Rabban  Jochanan,  the  son  of  Zacchai, 
received  the  tradition  from  Hillel  and  Shammai.  He  used  to 
sa)%  j-f  thou  hast  leamt  much  Torah,  ascribe  not  any  merit  to 
thyself,  for  thereunto  wast  thou  created.  (10.)  Rabban 
Jochanan,  the  son  of  Zacchai,  had  five  disciples,  and  these  are 
they.  Rabbi  Eliezer,  the  son  of  Hyrcanus,  Rabbi  Joshua,  the 
son  of  Chananya,  Rabbi  Jose,  the  Priest,  Rabbi  Simeon,  the 
son  of  Nathaniel,  and  Rabbi  Eleazar,  the  son  of  Arach.  (11.) 
He  used  thus  to  recount  their  praise :  Eliezer,  the  son  ot 
Hyrcanus,  is  a  cemented  cistern,  which  loses  not  a  drop; 
Joshua,  the  son  of  Chananya — happy  is  she  that  bare  him; 
Jose,  the  Priest,  is  a  pious  man;  Simeon,  the  son  of  Nathaniel, 
is  a  fearer  of  sin ;  Eleazar,  the  son  of  Arach,  is  like  a  spring 
flowing  wth  ever-sustaining  vigor.  (12.)  He  used  to  say.  If 
all  the  sages  of  Israel  were  in  one  scale  of  the  balance,  and 
Eliezer,  the  son  of  Hyrcanus,  in  the  other,  he  would  outweigh 
them  all.     Abba  Saul  said  in  his  name.  If  all  the  sages  of

Israel  were  in  one  scale  of  the  balance,  and  Eliezer,  the  son 
of  Hyrcanns,  also  with  them,  and  Eleazar,  the  son  of  Arach, 
in  the  other  scale,  he  would  outweigh  them  all.  (13.)  He  saiu 
to  them,  Go  forth  and  see  which  is  the  good  way  to  which  a 
man  should  cleave.  R.  Eliezer  said,  A  good  eye;  R.  Joshua 
said,  A  good  friend;  R.  Jose  said,  A  good  neighbor;  R. 
Simeon  said,  One  who  foresees  the  fruit  of  an  action;  R. 
Eleazar  said,  A  good  heart.  Thereupon  he  said  to  them,  I 
approve  the  words  of  Eleazar,  the  son  of  Arach,  rather  than 
your  words,  for  in  his  words  yours  are  included.  (14.)  Hv**. 
said  to  them,  Go  forth  and  see  which  is  the  evil  way  that  a 
man  should  shun.  R.  EHezer  said.  An  evil  eye;  R.  Joshua  said, 
A  bad  friend ;  R.  Jose  said,  A  bad  neighbor ;  R.  Simeon  said, 
One  who  borrows  and  does  not  repay, — it  is  the  same  whether 
one  borrows  from  man  or  from  the  all-present  God ;  as  it  is 
said,  The  wicked  borroweth,  and  payeth  not  again,  but  the 
righteous  dealeth  graciously  and  giveth  (Psalm  xxxvii.  21)  ; 
R.  Eleazar  said,  A  bad  heart.  Thereupon  he  saia  to  them,  I 
approve  the  words  of  Eleazar,  the  son  of  Arach,  rather  than 
your  words,  for  in  his  words  yours  are  included.  (15.)  They 
each  said  three  things.  R.  Eliezer  said,  Let  thy  friend's 
honor  be  as  dear  to  thee  as  thine  own;  and  be  not  easily 
moved  to  anger;  and  repent  one  day  before  thy  death.  And 
(he  further  said).  Warm  thyself  by  the  fire  of  the  wise;  but 
beware  of  their  glowing  coals,  lest  thou  be  burnt,  for  their 
bite  is  the  bite  of  the  fox,  and  their  sting  is  the  scorpion's 
sting,  and  their  hiss  is  the  serpent's  hiss,  and  all  their  words 
are  like  coals  of  fire.*  (16.)  R.  Joshua  said,  The  evil  eye, 
the  evil  inclination,  and  hatred  of  his  fellow-creatures  put  a

man  out  of  the  world.  (17.)  R.  Jose  said,  Let  the  property 
of  thy  friend  be  as  dear  to  thee  as  thine  own ;  qualify  thyself 
for  the  study  of  the  Torah,  since  the  knowledge  of  it  is  not 
an  inheritance  of  thine,  and  let  all  thy  deeds  be  done  for  the 
sake  of  Heaven.  (18.)  R.  Simeon  said,  Be  careful  to  read 
the  Shema'  and  to  say  the  Amidah;  and  when  thou  prayest, 
regard  not  thy  prayer  as  a  fixed  mechanical  task,  but  as  an 
appeal  for  mercy  and  grace  before  the  All-present,  as  it  is 
said,  For  he  is  gracious  and  full  of  mercy,  slow  to  anger  and 
abounding  in  lovingkindness,  and  repenteth  him  of  the  evil 
(Joel  ii.  13)  ;  and  be  not  wicked  in  thine  own  esteem.  (19.) 
R.  Eleazar  said,  Be  watchful  in  the  study  of  the  Torah,  and 
know  what  answer  to  give  to  the  unbeliever ;  know  also 
before  whom  thou  toilest,  and  who  thy  Employer  is,  who  will 
pay  thee  the  reward  of  thy  labor.  (20.)  Rabbi  j.arphon  said, 
The  day  is  short,  and  the  work  is  great,  and  the  laborers  are 
sluggish,  and  the  reward  is  much,  and  the  Master  of  the  house 
is  urgent.  (21.)  He  used  also  to  say.  It  is  not  thy  duty  to 
complete  the  work,  but  neither  art  thou  free  to  desist  from 
it;  if  thou  hast  studied  much  Torah,  much  reward  will  be 
given  thee;  and  faithful  is  thy  Employer  to  pay  thee  the 
reward  of  thy  labor;  and  know  that  the  grant  of  reward  unto 
the  righteous  will  be  in  the  time  to  come. 

Rabbi  Chananya,  the  son  of  Akashya,  said.  The  Holy  One, 
blessed  be  he,  was  pleased  to  make  Israel  worthy;  wherefore 
he  gave  them  a  copious  Torah  and  many  commandments,  as  it 
is  said.  It  pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  righteousness'  sake,  to 
magnify  the  Torah  and  make  it  honorable  (Isaiah  xlii.  21).

278  AFTERNOON    SERVICE    FOR    SABBATHS 

Chapter  IIL 

All  Israel  have  a  portion  in  the  world  to  come,  as  it  is  said 
(Isaiah  Ix.  21),  And  thy  people  shall  be  all  righteous;  th^y 
shall  inherit  the  land  for  ever,  the  branch  of  my  plantings,  the 
work  of  my  hands,  that  I  may  be  glorified. 

(1.)  Akabya,  the  son  of  Mahalalel,  said,  Reflect  upon  three 
things,  and  thou  wilt  not  come  within  the  power  of  sin :  know 
whence  thoii  earnest,  and  whither  thou  art  going,  and  before 
whom  thou  wilt  in  future  have  to  give  account  and  reckoning. 
Whence  thou  earnest : — from  a  putrefying  drop ;  whither  thou 
art  going: — to  a  place  of  dust,  worms  and  maggots;  and  be- 
fore wnom  thou  wilt  in  future  have  to  give  account  and 
reckoning: — before  the  Supreme  King  of  kings,  the  Holy  One, 
blessed  be  he.  (2.)  R.  Chanina,  the  Vice-High-Priest,  said, 
Pray  for  the  welfare  of  the  government,  since  but  for  the 
fear  thereof  men  would  swallow  each  other  alive.  (3.)  R. 
Chananya,  the  son  of  Teradyon,  said.  If  two  sit  together  and 
interchange  no  words  of  Torah,  they  are  a  meeting  of  scorn- 
ers,  concerning  whom  it  is  said.  The  godly  man  sitteth  not 
in  the  seat  of  the  scorners  (Ps.  i.  1)  ;  but  if  two  sit  together 
and  interchange  words  of  Torah,  the  Divine  Presence  abides 
between  them ;  as  it  is  said.  Then  they  that  feared  the  Lord 
spake  one  with  the  other:  and  the  Lord  hearkened  and  heard, 
and  a  book  of  remembrance  was  written  before  him,  for  them 
that  feared  the  Lord,  and  that  thought  upon  his  name  (Mai. 
iii.  16).  Now,  the  Scripture  enables  me  to  draw  this  inference 
in  respect  to  two  persons;  whence  can  it  be  deduced  that  if 
even  one  person  sedulously  occupies  himself  with  the  Torah, 
the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he,  appoints  unto  him  a  reward? 
Because  it  is  said,  Though  he  sit  alone,  and  meditate  in  still- 
ness, yet  he  taketh  it  (the  reward)  upon  him  (Lam.  iii.  27).* 
(4.)  R.  Simeon  said,  If  three  have  eaten  at  a  table  and  have 
Spoken  there  no  words  of  Torah,  it  is  as  if  they  had  eaten 

*Where  biblical  verses  are  employed  not  in  a  strictly  literal 
tfense,  it  is  to  be  observed  that  the  Rabbis,  like  other  preachers, 
made  use  of  such  passages  for  homiletical  purposes,  as  illus- 
trations of  their  meaning  rather  than  as  logical  foundations 
for  their  teaching.  It  was  felt  that  additional  weight  would 
attach  to  any  opinion  with  which  some  point  of  contact  could 
be  found  in  the  Scriptures.

of  sacrifices  to  dead  idols,  of  whom  it  is  said,  For  all  their 
tables  are  full  of  vomit  and  filthiness ;  the  All-present  is  not 
(in  their  thoughts)  (Isa.  xxviii.  8).  But  if  three  have  eaten 
at  a  table  and  have  spoken  there  v^ords  of  Torah,  it  is  as  if 
they  had  eaten  at  the  table  of  the  All-present,  to  which  the 
Scripture  may  be  applied.  And  he  said  unto  me,  This  is  the 
table  that  is  before  the  Lord  (Ezek.  xli.  22).  (5.)  R.  Chanina, 
the  son  of  Chachinai,  said,  He  who  keeps  awake  at  night,  and 
goes  on  his  way  alone,  while  turning  his  heart  to  vanity,  such 
a  one  forfeits  his  own  life.  (6.)  R.  Nechunya,  son  of  Hak- 
kanah,  said.  Whoso  receives  upon  himself  the  yoke  of  the 
Torah,  from  him  the  yoke  of  the  kingdom  and  the  yoke  of 
worldly  care  will  be  removed ;  but  whoso  breaks  off  from  him 
the  yoke  of  the  Torah,  upon  him  will  be  laid  the  yoke  of  the 
kingdom  and  the  yoke  of  worldly  care.  (7.)  R.  Chalafta,  the 
son  of  Dosa,  of  the  village  of  Chananya,  said,  When  ten 
people  sit  together  and  occupy  themselves  with  the  Torah,  the 
Shechinah  abides  among  them,  as  it  is  said,  God  standeth  in 
the  congregation*  of  the  godly  (Psalm  Ixxxii.  1).  And 
whence  can  it  be  shown  that  the  same  applies  to  five  ?  Because 
it  is  said.  He  hath  founded  his  bandf  upon  the  earth  (Amos 
ix.  6).  And  whence  can  it  be  shown  that  the  same  applies  ta 
three?  Because  it  is  said.  He  judgeth  among  the  judgesj 
(Psa.  Ixxxii.  1).  And  whence  can  it  be  shown  that  the  same 
applies  to  two?  Because  it  is  said.  Then  they  that  feared  the 
Lord  spake  one  with  the  other;  and  the  Lord  hearkened,  and 
heard  (Mai.  iii.  16).  And  whence  can  it  be  shown  that  the 
game  applies  even  to  one?  Because  it  is  said,  In  every  place 
where  I  cause  my  name  to  be-  remembered  I  will  come  unto 
thee  and  I  will  bless  thee  (Exod.  xx.  24).  (8.)  R.  Eleazar, 
of  Bertotha,  said,  Give  unto  Him  of  what  is  His,  seeing  that 
thou  and  what  thou  hast  are  His :  this  is  also  found  expressed 
by  David,  who  said,  For  all  things  come  of  Thee,  and  of 
Thine  own  we  have  given  Thee  (1  Chron.  xxix.  14).  (9.) 
R.  Jacob  said.  He  who  is  walking  by  the  way  and  studying, 
and  breaks  off  his  study  aixd  says,  How  fine  is  that  tree,  how 
fine  is  that  fallow,  him  the  Scripture  regards  as  if  he  had 
forfeited  his  hfe.      (10.)    R.  Dostai,  the  son  of  Jannai,  said 


*Ten  are  the  minimum  to  form  a  "congregation"  (Edah). 
fFive,  the  minimum  to  constitute  a  "band"  (Aguddah). 
$The    smallest   judicial    tribunal    was    composed    of    three 
judges.

AFTERNOON  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS 


in  the  name  of  R.  Meir,  Whoso  forgets  one  word  of  his 
study,  him  the  Scripture  regards  as  if  he  had  forfeited  his 
life,  for  it  is  said,  Only  take  heed  to  thyself,  and  keep  thy 
soul  diligently,  lest  thou  forget  the  things  which  thine  eyes 
have  seen  (Deut.  iv.  9).  Now,  one  might  suppose  that  the 
same  result  follows  even  if  a  man's  study  has  been  too  hard 
for  him.  To  guard  against  such  an  inference,  it  is  said 
(ibid.),  And  lest  they  depart  from  thy  mouth  all  the  days 
of  thy  life.  Thus,  a  person's  guilt  is  not  established  until  he 
deliberately  and  of  set  purpose  removes  those  lessons  from  his 
heart.  (11.)  R.  Chanina,  the  son  of  Dosa,  said,  He  in  whom 
the  fear  of  sin  comes  before  wisdom,  his  wisdom  shall  endure; 
but  he  in  whom  wisdom  comes  before  the  fear  of  sin,  his 
wisdom  will  not  endure.  (12.)  He  used  to  say.  He  whose 
works  exceed  his  wisdom,  his  wisdom  shall  endure;  but  he 
whoso  wisdom  exceeds  his  works,  his  wisdom  will  not  endnre. 
(13.)  He  used  to  say.  He  in  whom  the  spirit  of  his  fellow- 
creatures  takes  delight,  in  him  the  Spirit  of  the  All-present 
takes  delight;  and  he  in  whom  the  spirit  of  his  fellow-crea- 
tures takes  not  delight,  in  him  the  Spirit  of  the  All-present 
takes  not  delight.  (14.)  R.  Dosa,  the  son  of  Horkinas,  said. 
Morning  sleep,  and  midday  wine,  and  children's  talk,  and 
attending  the  houses  of  assembly  of  the  ignorant  put  a  man 
out  of  the  world.  (15.)  R.  Eleazar  Hammudai  said,  He  who 
profanes  things  sacred,  and  despises  the  festivals,  and  puts 
his  fellow-man  to  shame  in  pubUc,  and  makes  void  the  cov- 
enant of  Abraham  our  father,  and  makes  the  Torah  bear  a 
meaning  other  than  the  right,  such  a  one,  even  though  knowl- 
edge of  the  Torah  and  good  deeds  be  his,  has  no  share  in  the 
world  to  come.  (16.)  R.  Ishmael  said,  Be  submissive  to  a 
superior,   affable   to   a   suppHant,   and    receive   all   men   with

cheerfulness.  (17.)  R.  Akiba  said,  Jesting  and  levity  lead  a 
man  on  to  lewdness.  The  Massorah*  is  a  fence  to  the  Torah; 
tithes  are  a  fence  to  riches ;  vows  are  a  fence  to  abstinence ;  a 
fence  to  wisdom  is  silence.  (18.)  He  used  to  say,  Beloved  is 
man,  for  he  was  created  in  the  image  of  God ;  but  it  was  by  a 
special  love  that  it  was  made  known  to  him  that  he  was 
created  in  the  image  of  God,  as  it  is  said,  For  in  the  image 
of  God  made  he  man  (Gen.  ix.  6).  Beloved  are  Israel,  for 
they  were  called  children  of  the  All-present;  but  it  was  by 
a  special  love  that  it  was  made  known  to  them  that  they 
were  called  children  of  the  All-present,  as  it  is  said.  Ye  are 
children  unto  the  Lord  your  God  (Deut.  xiv.  1).  Beloved 
are  Israel,  for  unto  them  was  given  the  desirable  instrument; 
but  it  was  by  a  special  love  that  it  was  made  known  to  them 
that  that  desirable  instrument  was  theirs,  through  which  the 
world  was  created,  as  it  is  said,  For  I  give  you  good  doctrine ; 
forsake  ye  not  my  Law  (Prov.  iv.  2).  (19.)  Everything  is 
foreseen,  yet  freedom  of  choice  is  given;  and  the  world  is 
judged  by  grace,  yet  all  is  according  to  the  amount  of  the 
work.  (20.)  He  used  to  say.  Everything  is  given  on  pledge, 
and  a  net  is  spread  for  all  the  living :  the  shop  is  open ;  and 
the  dealer  gives  credit ;  and  the  ledger  lies  open ;  and  the 
hand  writes ;  and  whosoever  wishes  to  borrow  may  come  and 
borrow ;  but  the  collectors  regularly  make  their  daily  round, 
and  exact  payment  from  man  whether  he  be  content  or  not; 
and  they  have  that  whereon  they  can  rely  in  their  demand; 
and  the  judgment  is  a  judgment  of  truth;  and  ever>'thing  is 
prepared  for  the  feast.  (21.)  R.  Eleazar,  the  son  of  Azaryah, 
said,  Where  there  is  no  Torah,  there  are  no  manners;  where 
there  are  no  manners,  there  is  no  Torah :  where  there  is  no 
wisdom,  there  is  no  fear  of  God;  where  there  is  no  fear  of 
God,  there  is  no  wisdom ;  where  there  is  no  knowledge,  there  is 
no  understanding ;  where  there  is  no  understanding,  there  is  no

knowledge:  where  there  is  no  meal,  there  is  no  Torah; 
where  there  is  no  Torah,  there  is  no  meal.  (22.)  He  used 
to  say,  He  whose  wisdom  exceeds  his  works,  to  what  is  he 
like  ?  To  a  tree  whose  branches  are  many,  but  whose  roots  are 
few;  and  the  wind  comes  and  plucks  it  up  and  overturns  it 
upon  its  face,  as  it  is  said,  And  he  shall  be  Hke  a  lonely 
juniper  tree  in  the  desert,  and  shall  not  see  when  good 
Cometh :  but  shall  inhabit  the  parched  places  in  the  wilderness, 
a  salt  land  and  not  inhabited  (Jeremiah  xvii.  6).  But  he 
whose  works  exceed  his  wisdom,  to  what  is  he  like?  To  a 
tree  whose  branches  are  few,  but  whose  roots  are  many,  so 
that  even  if  all  the  winds  in  the  world  come  and  blow  upon 
it,  it  cannot  be  stirred  from  its  place,  as  it  is  said.  And 
he  shall  be  as  a  tree  planted  by  the  waters ;  and  that  spreadeth 
out  its  roots  by  the  river,  and  shall  not  perceive  when  heat 
Cometh,  but  his  leaf  shall  be  green;  and  shall  not  be  troubled 
in  the  year  of  drought,  neither  shall  cease  from  yielding 
fruit  (Jeremiah  xvii.  8).  (23.)  R.  Eleazar  Chisma  said,  The 
laws  concerning  the  sacrifices  of  birds  and  the  purification 
of  women  are  ordinances  of  moment;  astronomy  and  geom- 
etry are  the  after-courses  of  wisdom. 

Rabbi  Chananya,  the  son  of  Akashya,  said,  The  Holy  One, 
blessed  be  he,  was  pleased  to  make  Israel  worthy;  wherefore 
he  gave  them  a  copious  Torah  and  many  commandments,  as  it 
is  said,  It  pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  righteousness'  sake,  to 
magnify  the  Torah  and  make  it  honorable  (Isaian  xlii.  21). 


Chapter  IV, 


All  Israel  have  a  portion  in  the  world  to  come,  as  it  is  said 
(Isaiah  Ix.  21),  And  thy  people  shall  be  all  righteous;  they 
shall  inherit  the  land  for  ever,  the  branch  of  my  planting,  the 
work  of  my  hands,  that  I  may  be  glorified.

all  men,  as  it  is  said,  From  all  my  teachers  I  have  gotten 
understanding  (Psalm  cxix.  99).  Who  is  mighty?  He  who 
subdues  his  passions,  as  it  is  said,  He  that  is  slow  to  anger 
is  better  than  the  mighty,  and  he  that  ruleth  over  his  spirit 
than  he  that  taketh  a  city  (Prov.  xvi.  2)2).  Who  is  rich? 
He  who  rejoices  in  his  portion,  as  it  is  said,  When  thou  eatest 
the  labor  of  thine  hands,  happy  art  thou,  and  it  shall  be  well 
with  thee  (Psalm  cxxviii.  2)  ;  happy  art  thou  in  this  world, 
and  it  shall  be  well  with  thee  in  the  world  to  come.  Who  is 
honored?  He  who  honors  others,  as  it  is  said.  For  them  that 
honor  me  I  will  honor,  and  they  that  despise  me  shall  be  held 
in  contempt  (1  Sam.  ii.  30).  (2.)  Ben  Azzai  said,  Run  to  do 
even  a  slight  precept,  and  flee  from  transgression ;  for  precept 
draws  precept  in  its  train,  and  transgression,  transgression; 
for  the  recompense  of  a  precept  is  a  precept,  and  the  recom- 
pense of  a  transgression,  a  transgression.  (3.)  He  used  to 
say.  Despise  not  any  man,  and  carp  not  at  any  thing;  for 
there  is  not  a  man  that  has  not  his  hour,  and  there  is  not  a 
thing  that  has  not  its  place.  (4.)  R.  Levitas,  of  Jabneh,  said. 
Be  exceedingly  lowly  of  spirit,  since  the  hope  of  man  is  but 
the  worm.  (5.)  R.  Jochanan,  the  son  of  Berokah,  said. 
Whosoever  profanes  the  Name  of  Heaven  in  secret  will  suffer 
the  penalty  for  it  in  public ;  and  this,  whether  the  Heavenly 
Name  be  profaned  in  ignorance  or  in  wilfulness.  (6.)  R. 
Ishmael,  his  son,  said.  He  who  learns  in  order  to  teach,  to 
him  the  means  will  be  vouchsafed  both  to  learn  and  to  teach ; 
but  he  who  learns  in  order  to  practice,  to  him  the  means  will 
be  vouchsafed  to  learn  and  to  teach,  to  observe  and  to  prac- 
tice. (7.)  R.  Zadok  said,  Separate  not  thyself  from  the 
congregation;  (in  the  judge's  office)  act  not  the  counsel's 
part;  make  not  of  the  Torah  a  crown  wherewith  to  aggrandise 
thyself,  nor  a  spade  wherewith  to  dig.  So  also  used  Hillel 
to  say,  He  who  makes  a  worldly  use  of  the  crown  of  the  Torah 
shall  waste  away.  Hence  thou  mayest  infer,  that  whosoever 
derives  a  profit  for  himself  from  the  words  of  the  Torah  ig

helping  on  his  own  destruction.  (8.)  R.  Jose  said,  Whoso 
honors  the  Torah  will  himself  be  honored  by  mankind,  but 
whoso  dishonors  the  Torah  will  himself  be  dishonored  by 
mankind.  (9.)  R.  Ishmael,  his  son,  said,  He  who  shuns  the 
judicial  office  rids  himself  ot  hatred,  robbery  and  vain  swear- 
ing ;  but  he  who  presumptuously  lays  down  decisons  is  foolish, 
wicked  and  of  an  arrogant  spirit.  (.10.)  He  used  to  say,  Judge 
not  alone,  for  none  may  judge  alone  save  One;  neither  say 
(to  thy  judicial  colleagues),  Accept  my  view,  for  the  choice 
is  theirs  (to  concur)  ;  and  it  is  not  for  thee  (to  compel 
concurrence).  (11.)  R.  Jonathan  said,  Whoso  fulfils  the 
Torah  in  the  midst  of  poverty  shall  in  the  end  fulfil  it  in 
the  midst  of  wealth;  and  whoso  neglects  the  Torah  in  the 
midst  of  wealth  shall  in  the  end  neglect  it  in  the  midst  of 
poverty.  (12.)  R.  Meir  said.  Lessen  thy  toil  for  worldly 
goods,  and  be  busy  in  the  Torah;  be  humble  of  spirit  before 
all  men;  if  thou  neglectest  the  Torah,  many  causes  for 
neglecting  it  will  present  themselves  to  thee,  but  if  thou  labor- 
est  in  the  Torah,  He  has  abundant  recompense  to  give  thee. 
(13.)  R.  Eliezer,  the  son  of  Jacob,  said.  He  who  does  one 
precept  has  gotten  himself  one  advocate;  and  he  who  commits 
one  transgression  has  g-^ten  himself  one  accuser.  Repent- 
ance and  good  deeds  are  as  a  shield  against  punishment.  (14.) 
R.  Jochanan,  the  sandal  maker,  said.  Every  assembly  which 
is  in  the  Name  of  Heaven  will  in  the  end  be  established,  but 
that  which  is  not  in  the  Name  of  Heaven  will  not  in  the  end 
be  established.  (15.)  R.  Eleazar,  the  son  of  Shammua,  said, 
Let  the  honor  of  thy  disciple  be  as  dear  to  thee  as  thine  own, 
and  the  honor  of  thine  associate  be  like  the  fear  of  thy  master, 
and  the  fear  of  thy  master  like  the  fear  of  Heaven.  (16.)  R. 
Judah  said.  Be  cautious  in  study,  for  an  error  in  study  ma;tr

amount  to  presumptuous  sin.  (17.)  R.  Simeon  said,  There  are 
three  crowns:  the  crown  of  Torah,  the  crown  of  priesthood, 
and  the  crown  of  kingdom;  but  the  crown  of  a  good  name 
excels  them  all.  (18.)  R.  Nehorai  said,  Wander  forth  to  a 
home  of  the  Torah,  and  say  not  that  the  Torah  will  come  after 
thee ;  for  there  thy  associates  will  estabhsh  thee  in  the  posses- 
sion of  it;  and  lean  not  upon  thine  own  understanding.  (19.) 
R.  Jannai  said,  It  is  not  in  our  power  to  explain  either  the 
iprosperity  of  the  wicked  or  the  afflictions  of  the  righteous. 
(20.)  R.  Mattithyah,  the  son  of  Cheresh,  said,  Be  beforehand 
in  the  salutation  of  peace  to  all  men ;  and  be  rather  a  tail 
to  lions  than  a  head  to  foxes.  (21.)  R.  Jacob  said.  This  world 
is  like  a  vestibule  before  the  world  to  come ;  prepare  thysell 
in  the  vestibule,  that  thou  mayest  enter  into  the  hall.  (22.) 
He  used  to  say.  Better  is  one  hour  of  repentance  and  good 
deeds  in  this  world  than  the  whole  life  of  the  world  to  come; 
and  better  is  one  hour  of  blissfulness  of  spirit  in  the  world  to 
come  than  the  whole  life  of  this  world  (23.)  R.  Simeon,  the 
son  of  Eleazar,  said,  Do  not  appease  thy  fellow  in  the  hour 
of  his  anger,  and  comfort  him  not  in  the  hour  when  his  dead 
lies  before  him,  and  question  him  not  in  the  hour  of  his  vow, 
and  strive  not  to  see  him  in  the  hour  of  his  disgrace.  (24.) 
Samuel  the  younger  used  to  quote.  Rejoice  not  when  thine 
enemy  falleth,  and  let  not  thine  heart  be  glad  when  he  stum- 
bleth:  lest  the  Lord  see  it  and  it  displease  him,  and  he  turn 
away  his  wrath  from  him  (Prov.  xxiv.  17,  18).  (25.)  Elisha, 
the  son  of  Abuyah,  said,  If  one  learns  as  a  child,  what  is  it 
like?  Like  ink  written  on  clean  paper.  If  one  learns  as  an 
old  man,  what  is  it  like?     Like  ink  written  on  blotted  paper.  '

(26.)  R.  Jose,  the  son  of  Judah,  of  Chephar  Babli,  said,  He 
who  learns  from  the  young,  to  what  is  he  Hke?  To  one  who. 
eats  unripe  grapes,  and  drinks  wine  from  his  vat.  And  he 
who  learns  from  the  old,  to  what  is  he  like?  To  one  who  eats 
ripe  grapes,  and  drinks  old  wine.  {^27.)  R.  Meir  said,  Look 
not  at  the  flask,  but  at  what  it  contains:  there  may  be  a  new 
flask  full  of  old  wine,  and  an  old  flask  that  has  not  even  new 
wine  in  it.  (28.)  R.  Eleazar  Hakkappar  said.  Envy,  cupidity 
and  ambition  take  a  man  from  the  world.  (29.)  He  used  to 
say.  They  that  are  born  are  destined  to  die;  and  the  dead 
to  be  brought  to  life  again;  and  the  living  to  be  judged,  to 
know,  to  make  known,  and  to  be  made  conscious  that  he  is 
God,  he  the  Maker,  he  the  Creator,  he  the  Discerner,  he  the 
Judge,  he  the  Witness,  he  the  Complainant ;  he  it  !s  that  will  in 
future  judge,  blessed  be  he,  with  whom  there  is  no  unrighteous- 
ness, nor  forgetfulness,  nor  respect  of  persons,  nor  taking  of 
bribes:  know  also  that  everything  is  according  to  the  reckon- 
ing :  and  let  not  thy  imagination  give  thee  hope  that  the  grave 
will  be  a  place  of  refuge  for  thee;  for  perforce  thou  wast 
formed,  and  perforce  thou  wast  born,  and  thou  livest  per- 
force, and  perforce  thou  wilt  die,  and  perforce  thou  wilt  in 
the  future  have  to  give  account  and  reckoning  before  the 
Supreme  King  of  kings,  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he. 

Rabbi  Chananya,  the  son  of  Akashya;  said.  The  Holy  One, 
blessed  be  he,  was  pleased  to  make  Israel  worthy ;  wherefore 
he  gave  them  a  copious  Torah  and  many  commandments,  as  it 
is  said.  It  pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  righteousness'  sake,  to 
magnify  the  Torah  and  make  it  honorable   (Isaiah  xlii.  2i).

Chapter  V. 

All  Israel  have  a  portion  in  the  world  to  come,  as  it  is  said 
(Isaiah  Ix.  21),  And  thy  people  shall  be  all  righteous;  they 
shall  inherit  the  land  for  ever,  the  branch  of  my  planting,  the 
work  of  my  hands,  that  I  may  be  glorified. 

(1.)   With  ten  Sayings*  the  world  was  created.     What  does 
this  teach  us?     Could  it  not  have  been  created  with  one  Say- 
ing?    It  is  to  make  known  the  punishment  that  will  befall  the 
wicked  who  destroy  the  world  that  was  created  with  ten  Say- 
ings, as  well  as  the  goodly  reward  that  will  be  bestowed  uponj 
*-he  just  who  preserve  the  world  that  was  created  with  tei 
Sayings.      (2.)    There   were   ten   generations    from   Adam   t<] 
Noah,  to  make  known  how  longsuffering  God  is,  seeing  the' 
all    those    generations    continued    provoking    him,    until    h« 
brought  upon  them  the  waters  of  the  flood.     (3.)  There  wer^^ 
ten  generations  from  Noah  to  Abraham,  to  make  known  how" 
longsuffering  God  is,   seeing  that  all  those  generations  con- 
tinued provoking  him,  until  Abraham  our   father  came,  and 
received  the  reward  they  should  all  have  earned.     (4.)  With 
ten  trials  our  father  Abraham  was  tried,  and  he  stood  firm  in 
them  all,  to  make  known  how  great  was  the  love  of  our  father 
Abraham.     (5.)   Ten  miracles  were  wrought  for  our  fathers 
in  Egypt,  and  ten  at  the  Sea.     (6.)  Ten  plagues  did  the  Holy 
One,  blessed  be  he,  bring  upon  the  Egyptians  in  Egypt,  and 
ten  at  the  Sea.      (7.)   With  ten  temptations  did  our  fathers 
tempt  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he,  in  the  wilderness,  as  it 
is  said,  And  they  have  tempted  me  these  ten  times,  and  have 
cot  hearkened  to  my  voice  (Numb.  xiv.  22).     (8.)  Ten  mir- 
acles were  wrought  for  our  fathers  in  the  Temple :  no  woman 
miscarried   from  the   scent  of  the  holy  flesh;   the  holy  flesh 
never  became  putrid;  no  fly  was  seen  in  the  slaughter  house: 
no  unclean  accident  ever  befell  the  high  priest  on  the  Day  of 

*  In  Genesis  i.  the  sentence,  "And  God  said,"  occurs  nine 
times.  Verse  1,  "In  the  beginning  God  created  heaven  and 
earth,"  is  taken  as  another  "Saying"  in  accordance  with  PsaJm 
xxxii'i.  6-  "By  the  word  of  the  Lord  were  the  heavens  made/'

288      AFTERNOON  SERVICE  FOR  SABBATHS 

Atonement ;  the  rain  never  quenched  the  fire  of  the  wood-pile 
on  the  altar;  neither  did  the  wind  overcome  the  column  of 
smoke  that  arose  therefrom ;  nor  was  there  ever  found  any 
disqualifying  defect  in  the  omer  (of  new  barley,  offered  on 
the  second  day  of  Passover),  or  in  the  two  loaves  (the  firs'r 
fruits  of  the  wheat-harvest,  offered  on  Pentecost),  or  in  the 
shewbread ;  though  the  people  stood  closely  pressed  together, 
they  found  ample  space  to  prostrate  themselves ;  never  did 
serpent  or  scorpion  injure  any  one  in  Jerusalem;  nor  did  any 
man  ever  say  to  his  fellow,  The  place  is  too  strait  for  me  to 
lodge  over  night  in  Jerusalem.  (9.)  Ten  things  were  created 
on  the  eve  of  Sabbath  in  the  twilight:*  the  mouth  of  the  earth 
(Numb.  xvi.  32)  ;  the  mouth  of  the  well  (Ibid,  xxi,  16)  ;  the 
mouth  of  the  ass  (Ibid.  xxii.  28)  ;  the  rainbow;  the  manna; 
the  rod  (Exod.  iv.  17)  ;  the  Shamir  ;t  the  shape  of  the  written 
characters ;  the  writing,  and  the  tables  of  stone :  some  say  the 
destroying  spirits  also,  and  the  sepulchre  of  Moses,  and  the 
ram  of  Abraham  our  father ;  and  others  say,  tongs  also  made 
with  tongsj  (10.)  There  are  seven  marks  of  an  uncultured, 
and  seven  of  a  wise  man.  The  wise  man  does  not  speak  before 
him  who  is  greater  than  he  in  wisdom ;  and  does  not  break  in 
upon  the  speech  of  his  fellow ;  he  is  not  hasty  to  answer ;  he 
questions  according  to  the  subject  matter,  and  answers  to  the 
point ;  he  speaks  upon  the  first  thing  first,  and  upon  the  last 
last;  regarding  that  which  he  has  not  understood  he  says 
I  do  not  understand  it,  and  he  acknowledges  the  truth.  The 
reverse  of  ali  thii  is  to  be  found  in  an  uncultured  man.  (11.) 
Seven  kinds  of  punishment  come  into  the  world  for  seven  ini' 
portant  transgressions.  If  some  give  their  tithes  and  othen 
do  not,  a  dearth  ensues  from  drought,  and  some  suffer  hungei 
while  others  are  full.  If  they  all  determine  to  give  no  tithes

solve  not  to  give  the  dough-cake  (Numb.  xv.  20),  an  ex- 
terminating dearth  ensues.  Pestilence  comes  into  the  world 
to  fulfil  those  death  penalties  threatened  in  the  Torah,  the 
execution  of  w^hich,  however,  is  not  within  the  function  of  a 
luman  tribunal,  and  for  the  violation  of  the  law  regarding  the 
fruits  of  the  seventh  year  (Levit.  xxv.  1 — 7).  The  sword 
comes  into  the  world  for  the  delay  of  justice,  and  for  the  per- 
version of  justice,  and  on  account  of  the  offence  of  those  who 
interpret  the  Torah  not  according  to  its  true  sense.  Noxious 
beasts  come  into  the  world  for  vain  swearing,  and  for  the 
profanation  of  the  Divine  Name.  Captivity  comes  into  the 
world  on  account  of  idolatry,  immorality,  bloodshed,  and  the 
neglect  of  the  year  of  rest  for  the  soil.  (12.)  At  four  periods 
pestilence  grows  apace :  in  the  fourth  year,  in  the  seventh, 
at  the  conclusion  of  the  seventh  year,  and  at  the  conclusion  of 
the  Feast  of  Tabernacles  in  each  year :  in  the  fourth  year,  for 
default  of  giving  the  tithe  to  the  poor  in  the  third  year  (Deut. 
xiv.  28,  29)  ;  in  the  seventh  year,  for  default  of  giving  the  tithe 
to  the  poor  in  the  sixth  year ;  at  the  conclusion  of  the  seventh 
year,  for  the  violation  of  the  law  regarding  the  fruits  of  the 
seventh  year,  and  at  the  conclusion  of  the  Feast  of  Taber- 
nacles in  each  year,  for  robbing  the  poor  of  the  grants  legally 
assigned  to  them.*  (13.)  There  are  four  characters  among 
men :  he  who  says.  What  is  mine  is  mine  and  what  is  thine 
is  thine,  his  is  a  neutral  character : — some  say,  this  is  a  charac- 
ter like  that  of  Sodom;  he  who  says,  What  is  mine  is  thine 
and  what  is  thine  is  mine,  is  a  boor ;  he  who  says,  What  is 
mine  is  thine  and  what  is  thine  is  thine,  is  a  saint;  he  who 
says,  What  is  thine  is  mine  and  what  is  mine  is  mine,  is  a 
wicked  man.  (14.)  There  are  four  kinds  of  tempers:  he 
whom  it  is  easy  to  provoke  and  easy  to  pacify,  his  loss  disap- 
pears in  his  gain ;  he  whom  it  is  hard  to  provoke  and  hard  to 
pacify,  his  gain  disappears  in  his  loss ;  he  whom  it  is  hard  to 
provoke  and  easy  to  pacify  is  a  saint ;  he  whom  it  is  easy  to 
provoke  and  hard  to  pacify  is  a  wicked  man.  (15.)  There  are 
four  qualities  in  disciples :  he  who  quickly  understands  and 
quickly  forgets,  his  gain  disappears  in  his  loss ;  he  who  under- 
stands with  difficulty  and  forgets  with  difficulty,  his  loss  dis-

appears  in  his  gain ;  he  who  understands  quickly  and  forgets 
with  difficulty,  his  is  a  good  portion ;  he  who  understands  with 
difficulty  and  forgets  quickly,  his  is  an  evil  portion.  (16.)  As 
to  almsgiving  there  are  four  dispositions:  he  who  desires  to 
give,  but  that  others  should  not  give,  his  eye  is  evil  towards 
what  appertains  to  others  (since  almsgiving  brings  blessing  to 
the  giver)  ;  he  who  desires  that  others  should  give,  but  will  not 
give  himself,  his  eye  is  evil  against  what  is  his  own ;  he  whc 
gives  and  wishes  others  to  give  is  a  saint;  he  who  will  not 
give  and  does  not  wish  others  to  give  is  a  wicked  man.  (17.) 
There  are  four  characters  suggested  by  those  who  attend  the 
house  of  study :  he  who  goes  and  does  not  practise  secures 
the  reward  for  going;  he  who  practises  but  does  not  go  se-j' 
cures  the  reward  for  practising;  he  who  goes  and  practises  is 
a  saint ;  he  who  neither  goes  nor  practises  is  a  wicked  man 
(18.)  There  are  four  qualities  among  those  that  sit  before  the 
wise :  they  are  like  a  sponge,  a  funnel,  a  strainer,  or  a  sieve 
a  sponge,  which  sucks  up  everything;  a  funnel,  which  lets  in 
at  one  end  and  out  at  the  other ;  a  strainer,  which  lets  the  wine 
pass  out  and  retains  the  lees  ;  a  sieve,  which  lets  out  the  bran 
and  retains  the  fine  flour.  (19.)  Wlienever  love  depends  upon 
some  material  cause,  with  the  passing  away  of  that  cause,  the 
love  too  passes  away;  but  if  it  be  not  dependent  upon  such  a 
cause,  it  will  not  pass  away  for  ever.  Which  love  was  that 
which  depended  upon  a  material  cause?  Such  was  the  love  of 
Amnon  and  Tamar.  And  that  which  depended  upon  no  such 
cause?  Such  was  the  love  of  David  and  Jonathan.  (20.)  Every 
controversy  that  is  in  the  Name  of  Heaven  shall  in  the  end 
lead  to  a  permanent  result,  but  every  controversy  that  is  not 
in  the  Name  of  Heaven  shall  not  lead  to  a  permanent  result. 
Which  controversy  was  that  which  was  in  the  Name  of 
Heaven?  Such  was  the  controversy  of  Hillel  and  Shammai. 
And  that  which  was  not  in  the  Name  of  Heaven?  Such  was 
the  controversy  of  Korah  and  all  his  company.  (21.)  Whoso- 
ever causes  the  multitude  to  be  righteous,  through  him  no  sin 
shall  be  brought  about :  but  he  who  causes  the  multitude  to  sin

shal)  not  have  the  means  to  repent  (the  sins  of  others  being 
beyond  the  remedial  action  of  his  repentance).  Moses  was 
righteous  and  made  the  multitude  righteous;  the  righteous- 
ness of  the  multitude  was  laid  upon  him,  as  it  is  said,  He  ex- 
ecuted the  justice  of  the  Lord  and  his  judgments  with  Israel 
(Deut  xxxiii.  21).  Jeroboam,  the  son  of  Nebat,  sinned  and 
caused  the  multitude  to  sin ;  the  sin  of  the  multitude  was  laid 
upon  him,  as  it  is  said.  For  the  sins  of  Jeroboam  which  he 
sinned  and  which  he  made  Israel  to  sin  (I  Kings  xv.  30).  (22.) 
Whosoever  has  these  three  attributes  is  of  the  disciples  of 
Abraham  our  father,  but  whosoever  has  three  other  attributes 
is  of  the  disciples  of  Balaam  the  wicked.  A  good  eye,  a  hum- 
ble mind  and  a  lowly  spirit  (are  the  tokens)  of  the  disciple? 
of  Abraham  our  father;  an  evil  eye,  a  haughty  mind  and  a 
proud  spirit  (are  the  signs)  of  the  disciples  of  Balaam  the 
wicked.  What  is  the  difference  between  the  disciples  of  Abra- 
ham our  father  and  those  of  Balaam  the  wicked?  The  dis- 
ciples of  Abraham  our  father  '^njoy  this  world  and  inherit  the 
world  to  come,  as  it  is  said,  That  I  may  cause  those  that  love 
me  to  Inherit  substance,  and  may  fill  all  their  treasuries  (Prov. 
viii.  21)  ;  the  disciples  of  Balaam  the  wicked  inherit  Gehinnom 
and  descend  Into  the  pit  of  destruction,  as  it  is  said,  But  thou, 
O  God,  wilt  bring  them  down  into  the  pit  of  destruction: 
bloodthirsty  and  deceitful  men  shall  not  live  out  half  their 
days ;  but  I  will  trust  in  thee  (Psalm  Iv.  24).  (23.)  Judah,  the 
son  of  Tema,  said,  Be  strong  as  a  leopard,  light  as  an  eagle, 
fleet  as  a  hart,  and  strong  as  a  lion,  to  do  the  will  of  thy 
Father  who  is  In  heaven.  He  used  to  say,  The  bold-faced  are 
for  Gehinnom,  the  shame-faced  for  the  Garden  of  Eden.  (He 
said  further)  May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of 
our  fathers,  that  the  Temple  be  speedily  rebuilt  in  our  days, 
and  grant  our  portion  in  thy  Law.  (24.))  He  used  to  say.  At

Bag  said.  Turn  it  (the  Torah)  and  turn  it  over  again,  for 
everything  is  In  It,  and  contemplate  it,  and  wax  gray  and  old 
over  it,  and  stir  not  from  it,  for  thou  canst  have  no  better  rule

Rabbi  Chananya,  the  son  of  Akashya,  said,  The  Holy  One, 
blessed  be  he,  was  pleased  to  make  Israel  worthy;  wherefore 
he  gave  them  a  copious  Torah  and  many  commandments,  as  it 
is  said,  It  pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  righteousness'  sake,  to 
magnify  the  Torah  and  make  it  honorable  (Isaiah  xlli.  21). 


Chapter  VI* 


All  Israel  have  a  portion  in  the  world  to  come,  as  it  is  sak! 
{Isaiah  Ix.  21),  And  thy  people  shall  be  all  righteous;  they 
shall  inherit  the  land  for  ever,  the  branch  of  my  planting,  the 
work  of  my  hands,  that  I  may  be  glorified. 

The  sages  taught  the  following  in  the  style  of  the  Mishnah, 
..^Blessed  be  he  that  made  choice  of  them  and  their  Mish- 
nah. (1.)  R.  Mcir  said.  Wliosoever  labors  in  the  Torah  for 
its  own  sake  merits  many  things;  and  not  only  so,  but  the 
whole  world  is  indebted  to  him :  he  is  called  friend,  beloved,  a 
lover  of  the  All-present,  a  lover  of  mankind:  It  clothes  him 


*This  chapter,  called  Chapter  on  the  Acquisition  of  the  To- 
rah, or  Boraitha  of  R.  Meir,  is  not  a  part  of  the  Mishnah,  but 
of  the  collection  of  rabbinical  dicta  next  In  authority  to  it,

in  meekness  and  reverence;  it  fits  him  to  become  just,  pious, 
upright  and  faithful ;  it  keeps  him  far  from  sin,  and  brings 
him  near  to  virtue:  through  him  the  world  enjoys  counsel  and 
sound  knowledge,  understanding  and  strength,  as  it  is  said, 
Counsel  is  mine,  and  sound  knowledge;  I  am  understanding; 
I  have  strength  (Prov.  viii.  14*)  :  and  it  gives  him  sovereignty 
and  dominion  and  discerning  judgment;  to  him  the  secrets  of 
the  Torah  are  revealed ;  he  is  made  like  a  never-failing  foun- 
tain, and  like  a  river  that  flows  on  with  ever-sustained  vigor ; 
he  becomes  modest,  longsuffering,  and  forgiving  of  insults ; 
and  it  magnifies  and  exalts  him  above  all  things.  (2.)  R. 
Joshua,  the  son  of  Levi,  said.  Every  day  a  Bath-kol  (a  heav- 
enly voice)  goes  forth  from  Mount  Sinai,  proclaiming  these 
words,  Woe  to  mankind  for  contempt  of  the  Torah,  for  who- 
ever does  not  labor  in  the  Torah  is  said  to  be  under  the  divine 
censure,  as  it  is  said.  As  a  ring  of  gold  in  a  swine's  snout,  so  is 
a  fair  woman  who  turneth  aside  from  discretion  (Prov.  xi. 
22)  ;  and  it  says.  And  the  tables  were  the  work  of  God,  and 
the  writing  was  the  writing  of  God,  graven  upon  the  tables. 
Read  not  charuth  (graven),  but  cheruth  (freedom),  for  no 
man  is  free  but  he  who  labors  in  the  Torah.  But  whosoever 
labors  in  the  Torah,  behold  he  shall  be  exalted,  as  it  is  said, 
And  from  Mattanah  to  Nachaliel,  and  from  Nachaliel  to  Ba- 
moth$  (Numb.  xxi.  19).  (3.)  He  who  learns  from  his  fellow 
a  single  chapter,  a  single  rule,  a  single  verse,  a  single  expres- 
sion, or  even  a  single  letter,  ought  to  pay  him  honor,  for  so 
we  find  with  David,  King  of  Israel,  who  learnt  only  two 
things  from  Ahitophel,§  and  yet  regarded  him  as  his  master, 
iiis  guide  and  his  familiar  friend,  as  it  is  said,  But  it  was  thou, 
a  man,  mine  equal,  my  guide,  and  my  familiar  friend  (Psalm 
iv.  14).  Now,  is  it  not  an  argument  from  minor  to  major?  If 
David,  the  King  of  Israel,  who  learned  only  two  things  from 
Ahitophel,    regarded   him   as   his   master,   guide   and   familiar 


♦Wisdom,  of  which  the  Torah  is  the  embodiment,  speaks 
ihese  words. 

$A  play  upon  the  words  of  the  text :  Mattanah  =  "gift** ; 
Nachaliel  =  "the  heritage  of  God'* ;  Bamoth  —  "high  places." 

§In  the  two  matters  referred  to  in  Psalm  Iv.  15,  "We  took 
sweet  counsel  together,"  and  "We  walked  into  the  house  of 
God  with  the  throng,"  David  is  said  to  have  followed  the 
teaching  of  Ahitophel.

friend,  how  much  more  ought  one  who  learns  from  his  fellovi 
a  chapter,  rule,  verse,  expression,  or  even  a  single  letter,  to 
pay  him  honor?  And  honor  is  nothing  but  Torah,  as  it  is  said, 
The  wise  shall  inherit  honor  (Prov.  iii.  35)  ;  and  the  perfect 
shall  inherit  good  (Ibid,  xxviii.  10).  And  good  is  nothing  but 
Torah,  as  it  is  said,  For  I  give  you  good  doctrine,  forsake  ye 
not  my  Torah  (Ibid.  iv.  2).  (4.)  This  is  the  way  that  is  be- 
coming for  the  study  of  the  Torah:  a  morsel  of  bread  with 
salt  thou  must  eat,  and  water  by  measure  thou  must  drink, 
thou  must  sleep  upon  the  ground,  and  live  a  life  of  trouble 
the  while  thou  toilest  in  the  Torah.  If  thou  doest  this,  Happy 
shalt  thou  be  and  it  shall  be  well  with  thee  (Psalm  cxxviii.  2)  ; 
happy  shalt  thou  be  in  this  world,  and  it  shall  be  well  with  thee 
in  the  world  to  come,  (5.)  Seek  not  greatness  for  thyself,  and 
court  not  honor ;  let  thy  works  exceed  thy  learning ;  and  crave 
tiot  after  the  table  of  kings ;  for  thy  table  is  greater  than  theirs, 
and  thy  crown  is  greater  than  theirs,  and  thy  Employer  is 
faithful  to  pay  thee  the  reward  of  thy  work.  (6.)  The  Torah 
is  greater  than  the  priesthood  and  than  royalty,  seeing  that 
royalty  demands  thirty  qualifications,*  the  priesthood  twenty- 
four,!  while  the  Torah  is  acquired  by  forty-eight.  And  these 
are  they :  By  audible  study ;  by  distinct  pronunciation ;  by  un- 
derstanding and  discernment  of  the  heart;  by  awe,  reverence, 
meekness,  cheerfulness ;  by  ministering  to  the  sages,  by  attach- 
ing oneself  to  colleagues,  by  discussion  with  disciples;  by  se- 
dateness ;  by  knowledge  of  the  Scripture  and  of  the  Mishnah ; 
by  moderation  in  business,  in  intercourse  with  the  world,  in 
pleasure,  in  sleep,  in  conversation,  in  laughter;  by  longsuffer- 
ing ;   by  a  good  heart ;  by  faith  in  the  wise ;  by  resignation

under  chastisement;  by  recognizing  one's  place,  rejoicing  in 
one's  portion,  putting  a  fence  to  one's  words,  claiming  no  merit 
tor  oneself;  by  being  beloved,  loving  the  All-present,  loving 
mankind,  loving  just  courses,  rectitude  and  reproof;  by  keep- 
mg  oneself  far  from  honor,  not  boasting  of  one's  learning,  nor 
delighting  in  giving  decisions;  by  bearing  the  yoke  with  one's 
fellow,  judging  him  favorably,  and  leading  him  to  truth  and 
peace ;  by  being  composed  in  one's  study ;  by  asking  and  an- 
swering, hearing  and  adding  thereto  (by  one's  own  reflection)  ; 
by  learning  with  the  object  of  teaching,  and  by  learning  with 
the  object  of  practising;  by  making  one's  master  wiser,  fixing 
attention   upon   his   discourse,   and    reporting   a   thing   in   the 
name   of  him  who  said  it.     So  thou  hast  learnt,  Whosoever 
reports  a  thing  in  the  name  of  him  who  said  it  brings  deliver- 
ance into  the  world,  as  it  is  said.  And  Esther  told  the  king 
in  the  name  of  Mcrdecai   (Esther  ii.  22).     (7.)    Great  is  the 
Torah  which  gives  life  to  those  that  practise  it  in  this  world 
and  in  the  world  to  come,  as  it  is  said.  For  they  are  life  unto 
those  that  find  them,  and  health  to  all  their  flesh   (Prov.  iv. 
22)  ;  and  it  says.  It  shall  be  health  to  thy  navel,  and  marrow 
to  thy  bones  (Ibid.  iii.  8)  ;  and  it  says.  It  is  a  tree  of  life  to 
them  that  grasp  it,  and  of  them  that  uphold  it  every  one  is 
rendered  happy  (Ibid.  iii.  18)  ;  and  it  says.  For  they  shall  be 
a  chaplet  of  grace  unto  thy  head,  and  chains  about  thy  neck 
(Ibid,  i  9)  ;  and  it  says.  It  shall  give  to  thine  head  a  chaplet 
of  grace:  a  crown  of  glory  it  shall  deliver  to  thee  (Ibid.  iv. 
9)  ;  and  it  says.  For  by  m^e  thy  days  shall  be  multiplied,  and 
the  years  of  thy  life  shall  be  increased   (Ibid.  ix.  11)  ;  and  it 
says.   Length  of  days   is  in  its   right  hand;   in   its  left  hand 
are  riches  and  honor  (Ibid.  iii.  16)  ;  and  it  says,  For  length 
of  days,  and  years  of  life,  and  peace  shall  they  add  to  thee 
(Ibid.  iii.  2).     (8.)  R.  Simeon,  the  son  of  Judah,  in  the  name 
of  R.  Simeon,  the  son  of  Jochai,  said.  Beauty,  strength,  riches, 
honor,  wisdom,  old  age  and  a  hoary  head  and  children  are 
comely  to   the   righteous   and   comely  to   the   world,   as   it  is 
said.   The  hoary  head  Is  a  crown  of  glory,  if  it  be  found

in  the  way  of  righteousness  (Ibid.  xvi.  31)  ;  and  it  says,  The 
glory  of  young  men  is  their  strength,  and  the  adornment  of 
old  men  is  the  hoary  head  (Ibid.  xx.  29)  ;  and  it  says,  A  crown 
unto  the  wise  is  their  riches  (Ibid.  xiv.  24)  ;  and  it  says, 
Children's  children  are  the  crown  of  old  men,  and  the  adorn- 
ment of  children  are  their  fathers  (Ibid.  xvii.  6)  ;  and  it  is 
said,  Then  the  moon  shall  be  confounded  and  the  sun 
ashamed ;  for  the  Lord  of  hosts  shall  reign  in  Mount  Zion 
and  in  Jerusalem,  and  before  his  elders  shall  be  glory  (Isaiah 
xxiv.  23).  R.  Simeon,  the  son  of  Menasya,  said.  These  seven 
qiialifications  which  the  sages  enumerated  as  becoming  to  the 
righteous  were  all  realized  in  Rabbi  Judah  the  Prince,  and  in 
his  sons.  (9.)  R.  Jose,  the  son  of  Kisma,  said,  I  was  once 
walking  by  the  way,  when  a  man  met  me  and  saluted  me,  and 
I  returned  the  salutation.  He  said  to  me.  Rabbi,  from  what 
place  art  thou?  I  said  to  him,  I  come  from  a  great  city  of 
sages  and  scribes.  He  said  to  me,  If  thou  art  willing  to  dwell 
with  us  in  our  place,  I  will  give  thee  a  thousand  thousand  gold- 
en dinars  and  precious  stones  and  pearls.  I  said  to  him,  Wert 
thou  to  give  me  all  the  silver  and  gold  and  precious  stones  and 
pearls  in  the  world,  I  would  not  dwell  anywhere  but  In  a  home 
of  the  Torah ;  and  thus  It  Is  written  In  the  book  of  Psalms  by 
the  hands  of  David,  King  of  Israel,  The  law  of  thy  mouth  is 
better  unto  me  than  thousands  of  gold  and  silver  (Psalm  cxix. 
72)  ;  and  not  only  so,  but  in  the  hour  of  man's  departure  nei- 
ther silver  nor  gold  nor  precious  stones  nor  pearls  accompany 
him,  but  only  Torah  and  good  works,  as  It  is  said,  When  thou 
walkest  it  shall  lead  thee ;  when  thou  llest  down  it  shall  watch 
over  thee ;  and  when  thou  awakest  It  shall  talk  with  thee 
(Prov.  vi.  22)  : — when  thou  walkest  it  shall  lead  thee — in  this 
world ;  when  thou  liest  down  It  shall  watch  over  thee — In  the 
grave ;  and  when  thou  awakest  it  shall  talk  with  thee — In  the

mine,  saith  the  Lord  of  hosts  (Haggai  ii.  8).  (10.)  Five  pos- 
sessions the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he,  made  especially  his  own 
in  his  world,  and  these  are  they,  The  Torah,  heaven  and  earth, 
A-braham,  Israel,  and  the  house  of  the  sanctuary.  Whence 
know  we  this  of  the  Torah?  Because  it  is  written,  The  Lord 
possessed  me  as  the  beginning  of  his  way,  before  his  works, 
irom  of  old  (Prov.  viii.  22).  Wlience  of  heaven  and  earth? 
Because  it  is  written,  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  The  heaven  is  my 
throne,  and  the  earth  Is  my  footstool:  what  manner  of  house 
will  ye  build  unto  me?  and  what  manner  of  place  for  my  rest? 
(Isaiah  Ixvi.  1)  ;  and  it  says.  How  manifold  are  thy  works, 
O  Lord !  In  wisdom  hast  thou  made  them  all :  the  earth  is  full 
of  thy  possessions  (Psalm  civ.  24).  Whence  of  Abraham? 
Because  it  is  written,  And  he  blessed  him,  and  said.  Blessed 
be  Abram  of  the  Most  High  God,  possessor  of  heaven  and 
earth  (Genesis  xiv.  19).  Whence  of  Israel?  Because  it  is 
written,  Till  thy  people  pass  over,  O  Lord,  till  the  people  pass 
over  which  thou  hast  acquired  (Exod.  xv.  16)  ;  and  it  says. 
As  for  the  saints  that  are  in  the  earth,  they  are  noble  ones 
in  whom  is  all  my  delight  (Psalm  xvi.  3).  Whence  of  the 
house  of  the  sanctuary?  Because  it  is  written,  The  place,  O 
Lord,  which  thou  hast  made  for  thee  to  dwell  in,  the  sanc- 
tuary, O  Lord,  which  thy  hands  have  prepared  (Exod.  xv.  17)  ; 
and  it  says,  And  he  brought  them  to  the  border  of  his  sanc- 
tuary, to  this  mountain  which  his  right  hand  had  acquired 
(Psalm  Ixxviii.  54).  (11).  Whatsoever  the  Holy  One,  blessed 
be  he,  created,  in  his  world  he  created  but  for  his  glory,  as 
it  is  said,  Everything  that  is  called  by  my  name,  it  is  for  my 
glory  I  have  created  it,  I  have  formed  it,  yea,  I  have  made  it 
(Isaiah  xliii.  7)  ;  and  it  says.  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever 
and  ever  (Exod.  xv.  18). 

Rabbi  Chananya,  the  son  of  Akashya,  said,  The  Holy  One, 
blessed  be  he,  was  pleased  to  make  Israel  worthy;  wherefore 
he  gave  them  a  copious  Torah  and  many  commandments,  as  it 
is  said,  It  pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  righteousness'  sake,  to 
magnify  the  Torah  and  make  it  honorable  (Isaiah  xlii.  21).

SERVICE  FOR  THE  CONCLUSION  OF 
THE  SABBATH 
Psalm  cxliv. 
A  Psalm  of  David.  Blessed  be  the  Lord  my  rock, 
who  teacheth  my  hands  to  war,  and  my  fingers  to 
fight :  my  lovingkindness,  and  my  fortress,  my  strong- 
hold, and  my  deliverer;  my  shield,  and  he  in  whom  I 
take  refuge  :  who  subdueth  my  people  under  me.  Lord, 
what  is  man,  that  thou  regardest  him?  or  the  son  of 
man,  that  thou  takest  account  of  him?  Man  is  like  to 
vanity:  his  days  are  as  a  shadow  that  passeth  away. 
Bow  thy  heavens,  O  Lord,  and  come  down :  touch 
the  mountains,  and  they  shall  smoke.  Flash  forth  light- 
ning, and  scatter  them :  send  out  thine  arrows,  and  dis- 
comfit them.  Stretch  forth  thine  hands  from  above; 
rescue  me,  and  deliver  me  out  of  great  waters,  out  of 
the  hand  of  strangers;  whose  mouth  speaketh  vanity, 
and  their  right  hand  is  a  right  hand  of  falsehood.  I  will 
sing  a  new  song  unto  thee,  O  God :  upon  a  harp  of  ten 
strings  will  I  sing  praises  unto  thee.  It  is  he  that  giveth 
salvation  unto  kings :  who  rescueth  David  his  servant 
from  the  hurtful  sword.  Rescue  me,  and  deliver  me 
out  of  the  hand  of  strangers,  whose  mouth  speaketh 
vanity,  and  their  right  hand  is  a  right  hand  of  false- 
hood.— When  our  sons  shall  be  as  plants  grown  tall  in 
their  youth,  and  our  daughters  as  corner-stones  hewn 
after  the  fashion  of  a  palace;  when  our  garners  are 
full,  affording  all  manner  of  store,  and  our  sheep  bring 
forth  by  thousands ;  yea,  are  multiplied  by  tens  of  thou- 
sands in  our  fields;  when  our  oxen  are  well  laden; 
when  there  is  no  breach  and  no  surrender,   and  no

lamentation  in  our  streets;  happy  is  the  people,  that 
is  in  such  a  case :  yea,  happy  is  the  people,  whose  God 
is  the  Lord. 

Psalm  Ixvii, 

For  the  Chief  Musician ;  on  Neginoth.  A  Psalm.  A 
Song.  May  God  be  gracious  unto  us,  and  bless  us; 
may  he  cause  his  face  to  shine  upon  us.  (Selah.) 
That  thy  way  may  be  known  upon  the  earth,  thy  sal- 
vation among  all  nations.  Let  the  peoples  give  thanks 
unto  thee,  O  God ;  let  all  the  peoples  give  thanks  unto 
thee.  O  let  the  nations  rejoice  and  exult:  for  thou 
v/ilt  judge  the  peoples  with  equity,  and  lead  the  na- 
tions upon  the  earth.  (Selah.)  Let  the  peoples  give 
thanks  unto  thee,  O  God ;  let  all  the  peoples  give  thanks 
unto  thee.  The  earth  hath  yielded  her  increase :  God, 
ev^en  our  God,  shall  bless  us.  God  shall  bless  us ;  and 
all  the  ends  of  the  earth  shall  fear  him. 


For  Evening  Service,  Amidah  and  Kaddish  to  "And  say  ye 
Amen,"  see  pp.  128-149.      Then  say  the  following: 

And  let  the  pleasantness  of  the  Lord  our  God  be 
upon  us:  and  establish  thou  the  work  of  our  hands 
upon  us ;  yea,  the  work  of  our  hands  establish  thou  it. 

Psalm  xci. 

He  that  dwelleth  in  the  shelter  of  the  Most  High 
abideth  under  the  shadow  of  the  Almighty.  I  say  of 
the  Lord,  He  is  my  refuge  and  my  fortress;  my  God 
in  whom  I  trust.— For  he  shall  deliver  thee  from  the 
snare  of  the  fowler,  and  from  the  noisome  pestilence.

300  CONCLUSION    OF    SABBATH    SERVICE 

He  shall  cover  thee  with  his  pinions,  and  under  his 
wings  shalt  thou  take  refuge :  his  truth  shall  be  a  shield 
and  a  buckler.  Thou  shalt  not  be  afraid  of  the  terror 
by  night,  nor  of  the  arrow  that  flieth  by  day;  of  the 
pestilence  that  walketh  in  darkness,  nor  of  the  plague 
that  ravageth  at  noon  day.  A  thousand  may  fall  at 
thy  side,  and  ten  thousand  at  thy  right  hand;  it  shall 
not  come  nigh  imto  thee.  Only  with  thine  eyes  shalt 
thou  look  on,  and  see  the  retribution  of  the  wicked. — 
For  thou,  O  Lord,  art  my  refuge. — Thou  hast  made 
the  Most  High  thy  dwelling  place;  there  shall  no  evil 
befall  thee,  neither  shall  any  scourge  come  nigh  thy 
tent.  For  he  shall  give  his  angels  charge  over  thee,  to 
keep  thee  in  all  thy  ways.  They  shall  bear  thee  upon 
their  hands,  lest  thou  strike  thy  foot  against  a  stone. 
Thou  shalt  tread  upon  the  lion  and  the  adder :  upon  the 
young  lion  and  the  serpent  shalt  thou  trample. — Be- 
cause he  hath  set  his  love  upon  me,  therefore  will  I 
deliver  him  :  I  will  sei  him  on  high,  because  he  knoweth 
my  name.  When  he  calleth  upon  me,  I  will  answer 
him ;  I  will  be  with  him  in  trouble :  I  will  deliver  him 
and  honor  him.  With  length  of  days  will  I  satisfy  him, 
and  will  let  him  see  my  salvation.  Repeat  the  last  verse. 

But  thou  art  holy,  O  thou  that  dwellest  amid  the 
praises  of  Israel  And  one  cried  unto  another,  and  said. 
Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts :  the  whole  earth 
is  full  of  his  glory.  *And  they  receive  sanction  the 
one  from  the  other,  and  say,  Holy  in  the  highest  heav- 
ens, the  place  of  his  divine  abode;  holy  upon  earth, 
the  work  of  his  might ;  holy  for  ever  and  to  all  eternity 
is  the  Lord  of  hosts ;  the  whole  earth  is  full  of  the  radi^

heard  behind  me  the  voice  of  a  great  rushing  (saying)^ 
Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from  his  place.  *Then 
a  wind  lifted  me  up,  and  I  heard  behind  me  the  voice 
of  a  great  rushing,  of  those  who  uttered  praises,  and 
said,  Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from  the  region 
of  his  divine  abode.  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and 
ever.  *The  kingdom  of  the  Lord  endureth  for  ever 
and  to  all  eternity.  O  Lord,  the  God  of  Abraham,  of 
Isaac  and  of  Israel,  our  fathers,  keep  this  for  ever  in 
the  imagination  of  the  thoughts  of  the  heart  of  thy 
people,  and  direct  their  heart  unto  thee.  And  he,  being 
merciful,  forgiveth  iniquity  and  destroyeth  not:  yea, 
many  a  time  he  turneth  his  anger  away,  and  doth  not 
stir  up  all  his  wrath.  For  thou,  O  Lord,  art  good  and 
forgiving,  and  abounding  in  lovingkindness  to  all  them 
that  call  upon  thee.  Thy  righteousness  is  an  everlast- 
ing righteousness,  and  thy  Law  is  truth.  Thou  wilt 
show  truth  to  Jacob  and  lovingkindness  to  Abraham, 
according  as  thou  hast  sworn  unto  our  fathers  from 
the  days  of  old.  Blessed  be  the  Lord  day  by  day;  if 
one  burdeneth  us,  God  is  our  salvation.  (Selah).  The 
Lord  of  hosts  is  with  us;  the  God  of  Jacob  is  our 
stronghold.  (Selah.)  O  Lord  of  hosts,  happy  is  the 
man  who  trusteth  in  thee.  Save,  Lord :  may  the  King 
answer  us  on  the  day  when  we  call.  Blessed  is  our 
God,  who  hath  created  us  for  his  glory,  and  hath  sepa- 
rated us  from  them  that  go  as«;ray,  and  hath  given  us 
the  Law  of  truth  and  planted  everlasting  life  in  our 
midst.  May  he  open  our  heart  unto  his  Law,  and 
place  his  love  and    fear    within    our  hearts,   that  we

may  do  his  will  and  serve  him  with  a  perfect  heart,  that 
we  may  not  labor  in  vain,  nor  bring  forth  for  confu- 
sion. May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God 
of  our  fathers,  that  we  may  keep  thy  statutes  in  this 
world,  and  be  worthy  to  live  to  ^vitness  and  inhent  hap- 
piness and  blessing  in  the  days  of  the  Messiah  and  in 
the  life  of  the  world  to  come.  To  the  end  that  my 
glory  may  sing  praise  unto  th(ie,  and  not  be  silent : 
O  Lord  my  God,  I  will  give  thanks  unto  thee  for  ever. 
Blessed  is  the  man  that  trusteth  in  the  Lord,  and 
whose  trust  the  Lord  is.  Trust  ye  m  the  Lord  for 
ever;  for  in  Jah  the  Lord  is  an  everlasting  rock.  And 
they  that  know  thy  name  will  put  their  trust  in  thee; 
for  thou  hast  not  forsaken  them  that  seek  thee.  Lord. 
It  pleased  the  Lord,  for  his  ri^^hteousness'  sake,  to 
magnify  thf    Law  and  to  make  i*:  honorable.

304  CONCLUSION    OF    SABBATH    SERVICE 

may  he  help  thee, — and  the  Almighty — may  he  bless  thee  with 
blessings  of  the  heavens  above,  blessings  of  the  deep  that 
coucheth  beneath,  blessings  of  the  breasts  and  the  womb.  The 
blessings  of  thy  father  have  prevailed  above  the  blessings  of 
my  progenitors  unto  the  utmost  bound  of  the  everlasting 
hills:  may  they  be  on  the  head  of  Joseph,  and  on  the 
crown  of  the  head  of  him  that  is  prince  among  his  brethren. 
And  he  will  love  thee,  and  bless  thee,  and  multiply  thee : 
he  will  also  bless  the  fruit  of  thy  body  and  the  fruit  of 
thy  ground,  thy  corn  and  thy  wine  and  thine  oil,  the  off- 
spring of  thy  kine  and  the  young  of  thy  flock,  in  the  land 
which  he  sware  unto  chy  fathers  to  give  thee.  Thou  shalt  be 
blessed  above  all  peoples :  there  shall  not  be  male  or  female 
barren  among  you,  or  among  your  cattle.  And  the  Lord  will 
take  away  from  thee  all  sickness ;  and  he  will  put  none  of  the 
evil  diseases  of  Egypt,  which  thou  knowest,  upon  thee,  but  will 
lay  them  upon  all  them  that  hate  thee. 

The  angel  who  hath  redeemed  me  from  all  evil  bless  the 
lads;  and  let  my  name  be  named  on  them,  and  the  name 
of  my  fathers  Abraham  and  Isaac;  and  let  them  grow  into  a 
multitude  in  the  midst  of  the  earth.  The  Lord  your  God  hath 
multiplied  you,  and  behold  ye  are  this  day  as  tlie  stars  of 
heaven  for  multitude.  The  Lord,  the  God  of  your  fathers, 
make  you  a  thousand  times  so  many  more  as  you  are,  and 
bless  you,  as  he  hath  promised  you. 

Blessed  shalt  thou  be  in  the  city,  and  blessed  shalt  thou  be 
in  the  field.  Blessed  shalt  thou  be  when  thou  comest  in,  and 
blessed  shalt  thou  be  when  thou  goest  out.  Blessed  shall  be 
thy  basket  and  thy  kneading-trough.  Blessed  shall  be  the 
fruit  of  thy  body,  and  the  fruit  of  thy  ground,  and  the  fruit  of 
thy  cattle,  the  offspring  of  thy  kine,  and  the  young  of  thy 
flock.  The  Lord  shall  command  the  blessing  upon  thee  in 
thy  barns,  and  in  all  that  thou  puttest  thine  hand  unto;  and 
he  shall  bless  thee  in  the  land  which  the  Lord  thy  God  giveth 
thee.  The  Lord  shall  open  unto  thee  his  good  treasury,  the 
heavens,  to  give  the  rain  of  thy  land  in  its  season,  and  to  bless

305  CONCLUSION    OF    SABBATH    SERVICE 

all  the  work  of  thy  hand:  and  thou  shalt  lend  unto  man}; 
nations,  but  thou  shalt  not  borrow.  For  the  Lord  thy  God 
will  bless  thee,  as  he  promised  thee :  and  thou  shalt  lend  unto 
many  nations,  but  thou  shalt  not  borrow ;  and  thou  shalt  rule 
over  many  nations,  but  they  shall  not  rule  over  thee.  Happy 
art  thou,  O  Israel:  who  is  like  unto  thee,  a  people  saved  by 
the  Lor4  the  shield  of  thy  help,  and  that  is  the  sword  of  thy 
majesty!  And  thine  enemies  shall  submit  themselves  unto 
thee ;  and  thou  shalt  tread  upon  their  high  places. 

I  have  blotted  out,  as  a  cloud,  thy  transgressions,  and,  as 
a  mist,  thy  sins;  return  unto  me,  for  I  have  redeemed  thee 
Sing,  O  ye  heavens,  for  the  Lord  hath  done  it;  shout,  ye 
nethermost  parts  of  the  earth;  break  forth  into  singing,  ye 
mountains,  and  forest,  and  every  tree  therein;  for  the  Lord 
hath  redeemed  Jacob,  and  will  glorify  himself  in  Israel.  Our 
Redeemer,  the  Lord  of  hosts  is  his  name,  the  Holy  One  of 
Israel. 

Israel  is  saved  by  the  Lord  with  an  everlasting  salvation :  ye 
shall  not  be  ashamed  nor  confounded  for  ever  and  ever.  And 
ye  shall  eat  in  plenty  and  be  satisfied,  and  shall  praise  the  name 
of  the  Lord  your  God,  that  hath  dealt  wondrously  with  you:  ! 
and  my  people  shall  never  be  ashamed.  And  ye  shall 
know  that  I  am  in  the  midst  of  Israel,  and  that  I  am 
the  Lord  your  God,  and  there  is  none  else:  and  my  people 
shall  never  be  ashamed.  For  ye  shall  go  out  with  joy,  and 
be  led  forth  with  peace:  the  mountains  and  the  hills  shall 
break  forth  before  you  into  singing,  and  all  the  trees  of 
the  field  shall  clap  their  hands.  Behold,  God  is  my  salvation ; 
I  will  trust,  and  will  not  be  afraid:  for  Jah  the  Lord  is  my 
strength  and  song ;  and  he  is  become  my  salvation.  There-  | 
fore  with  joy  shall  ye  draw  water  out  of  the  wells  of  salva-  ! 
lion.  And  in  that  day  shall  ye  say,  Give  thanks  unto  the  i 
Lord,  call  upon  his  name,  declare  his  doings  among  the  peoples, 
make  mention  that  his  name  is  exalted.  Sing  unto  the  Lord; 
for  he  hath  done  excellent  things :  this  is  made  known  in 
all  the  earth.  Cry  aloud  and  shout,  thou  inhabitant  of 
Zion:  for  great  is  the  Holy  One  of  Israel  in  the  midst  of 
thee.     And  one   shall   say  in  that  day,  Lo,  this  is  our  God;

306  CONCLUSION    OF    SABBATH    SERVICE 

we  have  waited  for  him  that  he  should  save  us:  this  is  the 
Lord ;  we  have  waited  for  him,  let  us  be  glad  and  rejoice  in  his 
salvation. 

O  house  of  Jacob,  come  ye,  and  let  us  walk  in  the  light  of 
the  Lord.     And  abundance  of  salvation,  wisdom  and  knowl- 
edge  shall   be   the    steadfastness   of    thy   times:    the    fear   of 
the   Lord  is  his   treasure.     And   David   prospered   in   all   his 
ways;  and  the  Lord  was  with  him.     He  hath  rescued  my  soul 
in  peace  so  that  none  might  come  nigh  me,  for  they  were  many 
that  were  striving  with  me.     And  the  people  said  unto  Saul, 
Shall  Jonathan  die  who  hath  wrought  this  great  salvation  in 
Israel?     Far  be  it;   as  the   Lord  liveth,  there   shall   not  one 
hair  of  his  head  fall  to  the  ground ;  for  he  hath  wrought  with 
God  this  day.     So  the  people  rescued  Jonathan  that  he  died 
not.    And  the  rescued  of  the  Lord  shall  return,  and  come  with 
singing  unto   Zion ;   and   everlasting  joy   shall   be   upon   their 
heads:  they  shall  obtain  gladness  and  joy,  and  sorrow  and 
sighing  shall  flee  away.    Thou  hast  turned  for  me  my  mourn- 
ing into  dancing;  thou  hast  loosed  my  sackcloth  and  girded 
me  with  gladness    And  the  Lord  thj-  God  would  not  hearken 
unto  Balaam ;  but  the  Lord  thy  God  turned  the  curse  into  a 
blessing  unto  thee,  because  the  Lord  thy  God  loved  thee.    Then 
shall  the  virgin  rejoice  in  the  dance,  and  the  young  men  and 
the  old  together;  for  I  will  turn  their  mourning  into  joy,  and 
will  comfort  them,  and  make  them  rejoice  from  their  sorrow. 
He  createth  the  fruit  of  the  lips :     Peace,  peace  to  him  that 
ts  far  off  and  to  him  that  is  near,  saith  the  Lord,  and  I  will 
fieal  him.    Then  the  spirit  came  upon  Amasai,  who  was  chief 
of  the  captains   (and  he  said),  Thine  are  we,  David,  and  on 
thy  side,  O  son  of  Jesse ;  peace,  peace  be  unto  thee,  and  peace 
be  to  him  that  helpeth  thee ;  for  thy  God  helpeth  thee.     Then 
David  received  them,  and  made  them  chiefs  of  the  band.   And 
thus  ye  shall  say.  All  hail,  and  peace  be  unto  thee,  and  peace 
be  to  thy  house,  and  peace  be  unto  all  that  thou  hast.     The 
Lord  will  give  strength  unto  his  people ;  the  Lord  will  bless 
his   people    with   peace. 
Rabbi  Jochanan  said,  In  every  passage  where  thou  findest

the  greatness  of  God  mentioned,  there  thou  findest  also  Kis 
humility.  This  Is  written  In  the  Law,  repeated  in  the  Prophets, 
and  a  third  time  stated  in  the  Writings*  It  is  written  in  the 
Law,  for  the  Lord  your  God,  he  is  God  of  gods,  and  Lord 
of  lords,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God,  who  regardeth 
not  persons,  nor  taketh  a  bribe.  And  It  Is  written  after- 
wards. He  doth  execute  the  judgment  of  the  fatherless  and 
widow,  and  loveth  the  stranger,  in  giving  him  food  and  ral- 
ment.  It  Is  repeated  In  the  Prophets,  as  it  is  written.  For 
thus  salth  the  high  and  lofty  One  that  inhabiteth  eternity, 
and  whose  name  Is  holy,  I  dwell  In  the  high  and  holy  place, 
with  him  also  that  Is  of  a  contrite  and  humble  spirit,  to 
revive  the  spirit  of  the  humble,  and  to  revive  the  heart 
of  the  contrite  ones.  It  Is  a  third  time  stated  In  the 
Writings,  Sing  unto  God,  sing  praises  to  his  name:  extol  ye 
him  that  rideth  upon  the  heavens  by  his  name  Jah,  and 
rejoice  before  him.  And  it  is  written  afterwards,  A  father  of 
the  fatherless,  and  a  judge  of  the  widows,  is  God  In  his  holy 
habitation.  The  Lord  our  God  be  with  us,  as  he  was  with  our 
fathers :  let  him  not  leave  us,  nor  forsake  us.  And  ye  that 
cleave  unto  the  Lord  your  God  are  alive  every  one  of  you  this 
day.  For  the  Lord  hath  comforted  Zion :  he  hath  comforted 
all  her  waste  places,  and  hath  made  her  wilderness  like  Eden, 
and  her  desert  like  the  garden  of  the  Lord;  joy  and  gladness 
shall  be  found  therein,  thanksgiving  and  the  voice  of  melody. 
It  pleased  the  Lord  for  his  righteousness'  sake,  to  magnify  the 
Law  and  to  make  it  honorable.

CONCLUSION    OF    SABBATH    SERVICE 


table.  Behold  thus  shall  the  man  be  blessed  that  feareth  the 
Lord.  May  the  Lord  bless  thee  out  of  Zion :  mayest  thou  see 
the  good  of  Jerusalem  all  the  days  of  thy  life.  Yea,  mayesf 
thou  see  thy  children's  children.     Peace  be  upon  Israel. 

The  Reader  says  Habdalah,  p.  310,  omitting  the  Introductory 
Verses. 

It  is  our  duty  to  praise  the  Lord  of  all  things,  to 
ascribe  greatness  to  him  who  formed  the  world  in  the 
beginning,  since  he  hath  not  made  us  like  the  nations 
of  other  lands,  and  hath  not  placed  us  like  other  fami> 
lies  of  the  earth,  since  he  hath  not  assigned  unto  us  a 
portion  as  unto  them,  nor  a  lot  as  unto  all  their  multi- 
tude. For  we  bend  the  knee  and  offer  worship  and 
thanks  before  the  supreme  King  of  kings,  the  Holy 
One,  blessed  be  he,  who  stretched  forth  the  heavens 
and  laid  the  foundations  of  the  earth,  the  seat  of  whose 
glory  is  in  the  heavens  above,  and  the  abode  of  whose 
might  is  in  the  loftiest  heights.  He  is  our  God;  there 
is  none  else:  in  truth  he  is  our  King;  there  is  none 
besides  him;  as  it  is  written  in  his  Law,  And  thou 
shalt  know  this  day,  and  lay  it  to  thine  heart,  that  the 
Lord  he  is  God  in  heaven  above  and  upon  the  earth 
beneath:  there  is  none  else. 

We  therefore  hope  in  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  that 
we  may  speedily  behold  the  glory  of  thy  might,  when 
thou  wilt  remove  the  abominations  from  the  earth, 
and  the  idols  will  be  utterly  cut  off,  when  the  world  will 
be  perfected  under  the  kingdom  of  the  Almighty,  and 
all  the  children  of  flesh  will  call  upon  th}-  name,  when 
thou  wilt  turn  unto  thyself  all  the  wicked  of  the  earth. 
Let  all  the  inhabitants  of  the  world  perceive  and  knew

must  swear.  Before  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  let  them 
bow  and  fall;  and  unto  thy  glorious  name  let  them 
give  honor;  let  them  all  accept  the  yoke  of  thy  king- 
dom, and  do  thou  reign  over  them  speedily,  and  for 
ever  and  ever.  For  the  kingdom  is  thine,  and  to  al) 
eternity  thou  wilt  reign  in  glory;  as  it  is  written  in 
thy  Law,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever. 
And  it  is  said.  And  the  Lord  shall  be  king  over  all  the 
earth :  in  that  day  shall  the  Lord  be  One,  and  his  name 
One. 

The  following  Kaddish  is  said  by  a  Mourner. 

Mourner. — Magnified  and  sanctified  be  his  great 
»aame  in  the  world  which  he  hath  created  according  to 
his  will.  May  he  establish  his  kingdom  during  your 
life  and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life  of  all 
the  house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a  near  time, 
and  say  ye.  Amen. 

Cong,  and  Mourner.— l^Qt  his  great  name  be  blessed 
for  ever  and  to  all  eternity. 

Mourner.— Bltsstd,  praised  and  glorified,  exalted, 
extolled  and  honored,  magnified  and  lauded  be  the 
name  of  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he;  though  he  be 
high  above  all  the  blessings  and  hymns,  praises  and 
consolations,  which  are  uttered  in  the  world;  and  say 
ye.  Amen. 

Cong. — Let  the  name  of  the  Lord  be  blessed  from 
this  time  forth  and  for  evermore. 

Mourner. — May  there  be  abundant  peace  from 
heaven,  and  life  for  us  and  for  all  Israel ;  and  say  ye, 
A.men. 

Cong. — My  help  is  from  the  Lord,  who  made  heaven 
and  earth. 

Mourner. — He  who  maketh  peace  in  his  high  places, 
may  he  make  peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel ;  and  say

THE   HABDALAH    SERVICE 

A  cup  of  wine  is  taken  in  the  right  hand,  and  the  following 
is  said : — 

Behold,  God  is  my  salvation ;  I  will  trust,  and  will 
mot  be  afraid:  for  Jah  the  Lord  is  my  strength  and 
song,  and  he  is  become  my  salvation.  Therefore  with 
joy  sh-all  ye  draw  water  out  of  the  wells  of  salvation. 
Salvation  belongeth  unto  the  Lord:  thy  blessing  be 
upon  thy  people.  (Selah.)  The  Lord  af  hosts  is  with 
us;  the  God  of  Jacob  is  our  refuge.  (Selah.)  The 
Jews  had  light  and  joy  and  gladness  and  honor.  So 
be  it  with  us.  I  will  lift  the  cup  of  salvation,  and  call 
upon  the  name  of  the  Lord. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe  who  Greatest  the  fruit  of  the  vine. 

The  spice-box  is  taken,  and  the  following  is  said: —

and  other  nations,  between  the  seventh  day  and  the 
six  working  days.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who 
makest  a  distinction  between  holy  and  profane. 

May  he  who  maketh  a  distinction  between  holy  and  profane 
f)ardon  our  sins ;  our  offspring  and  our  possessions  may  he 
multiply  as  the  sand,  and  as  the  stars  in  the  night. 

The  day  hath  declined  like  the  palm  tree's  shade ;  I  call  upon 
God  who  performeth  all  things  for  me;  the  watchman  saith, 
The  morning  cometh,  though  it  now  be  night. 

Thy  righteousness  is  like  Mount  Tabor :  O  pass  thou  wholly 
over  my  sins ;  let  them  be  as  yesterday  which  is  past,  and  as  a 
watch  in  the  night. 

The  season  of  mine  oblations  is  over :  would  that  rest  again 
were  mine !  I  am  weary  with  my  groaning ;  in  my  tears  I  melt 
away  every  night. 

Hear  my  voice,  lee  it  not  be  cast  away ;  open  to  me  the  lofty 
gate,  for  my  head  is  filled  with  dew,  my  locks  with  the  drops 
of  the  night. 

Be  entreated,  O  dreaded  and  awful  God;  vhile  I  cry,  grant 
me  thy  redemption,  in  the  twilight,  in  the  evening  of  the  day, 
yea,  in  the  blackness  of  the  night. 

I  call  upon  thee,  Lord,  save  thou  me ;  make  me  to  know  tht 
path  of  life ;  from  pining  sickness  snatch  thou  me,  from  day 
to  night. 

Cleanse  the  impurity  of  my  deeds,  lest  my  foes  should  saj. 
Where  is  the  God  that  made  me,  who  giveth  songs  in  the 
night  ? 

We  are  like  clay  in  thy  hand ;  forgive,  we  beseech  thee,  our 
sins  both  light  and  grave,  and  day  shall  pour  forth  the  word 
unto  day,  and  night  unto  night. 

May  he  who  maketh  a  distinction  between  holy  and  profane 
pardon  our  sins ;  our  offspring  and  our  possessions  may  he 
multiply  as  the   sand,   and  as   the  stars  in   the  night.

MEDITATION  AND  BLESSINGS  ON  TAKING 
THE  LULAB. 

On  Tabernacles,  previous  to  Hallel,  p.  313,  being  said,  the 
Lulab  is  taken,  and  the  follozving  Meditation  and  Bless- 
ings are  read: — 

Lo,  I  am  prepared  and  ready  to  fulfil  the  command 
of  my  Creator,  who  hath  commanded  us  in  his  Law, 
And  ye  shall  take  you  on  the  first  day  the  fruit  of  the 
tree  Hadar,  branches  of  palm  trees,  a  bough  of  the  tree 
Aboth,  and  willows  of  the  brook.  While  I  wave  them, 
may  the  stream  of  blessings  flow  in  upon  me,  together 
with  holy  thoughts  which  tell  that  he  is  the  God  of 
gods  and  Lord  of  lords,  governing  below  and  above, 
whose  kingdom  ruleth  over  all.  May  this  my  obser- 
vance of  the  precept  of  the  Four  Species  be  accounted 
as  though  I  had  fulfilled  it  in  all  its  details  and  particu- 
lars. And  let  the  pleasantness  of  the  Lord  our  God  be 
upon  us,  and  establish  thou  the  work  of  our  hands 
upon  us ;  yea,  the  work  of  our  hands  establish  thou  it. 
Blessed  be  the  Lord  for  ever,  Amen,  and  Amen. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments, 
and  hast  given  us  command  concerning  the  taking  of 
the  Lulab. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  kept  us  in  life,  and  hast  preserved 
as,  and  enabled  us  to  reach  this  season. 

The  latter  Blessing  is  said  on  the  First  Day  of  the  festival 
only.  Should  the  First  Day,  hozvever,  fall  on  Sabbath,  if 
ts  said  on  the  Second  Day.

HALLEL. 

The  following  Prayer  (Hallel)  is  said  on  New  Moon,  on 
Passover,  Pentecost  and  Tabernacles,  and  on  Chanukah. 

On  the  Intermediate  Days  of  Festivals  the  Tephillin  are 
removed  before  Hallel;  on  New  Moon,  before  the 
Additional  Service. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments, 
und  hast  commanded  us  to  read  the  Hallel. 

Psalm  cxiii. 
Praise  ye  the  Lord.  Praise,  O  ye  servants  of  the 
Lord,  praise  the  name  of  the  Lord.  Let  the  name  of 
the  Lord  be  blessed  from  this  time  forth  and  for  ever- 
more. From  the  rising  of  the  sun  unto  the  going 
down  thereof  the  Lord's  name  is  to  be  praised.  The 
Lord  is  high  above  all  nations,  and  his  glory  above 
the  heavens.  Who  is  like  unto  the  Lord  our  God, 
that  dwelleth  so  high ;  that  looketh  down  so  low  upon 
the  heavens  and  the  earth?  He  raiseth  up  the  lowly 
out  of  the  dust,  and  lifteth  up  the  needy  from  the 
dunghill ;  that  he  may  set  him  with  princes,  even  with 
the  princes  of  his  people.  He  maketh  the  barren 
woman  dwell  in  her  house  as  a  joyful  mother  of 
children.    Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxiv. 
When  Israel  went  forth  out  of  Egypt,  the  house  of 
Jacob  from  a  people  of  strange  language;  Judah  be- 
came his  sanctuary,  Israel  his  dominion.   The  sea  saw 
%  and   fled;  Jordan  turned  back.     The  mountain?

Not  unto  us,  O  Lord,  not  unto  us,  but  unto  thy

Where,  then,  is  their  God?  But  our  God  is  in  the  heav- 
ens, he  doeth  whatsoever  he  pleaseth.  The'r  idols  are 
silver  and  gold,  the  work  of  men's  hands.  They  have 
mouths,  but  they  speak  not;  eyes  have  they,  but  they 
see  not.  They  have  ears,  but  they  hear  not ;  noses  have 
they,  but  they  smell  not.  As  for  their  hands,  they  touch 
not;  as  for  their  feet,  they  walk  not;  they  give  no 
sound  through  their  throat.  They  that  make  them  shall 
be  like  unto  them ;  yea,  every  one  that  trusteth  in 
them.  O  Israel,  trust  thou  in  the  Lord:  he  is  their 
help  and  their  shield.  O  house  of  Aaron,  trust  in  the 
Lord :  he  is  their  help  and  their  shield.  Ye  that  fear  the 
Lord,  trust  in  the  Lord :  he  is  their  help  and  their  shield,

The  cords  of  death  had  encompassed  me,  and  the  straits

Lord,  I  beseech  thee,  deliver  my  soul.  Gracious  is  the 
Lord  and  righteous :  yea,  our  God  is  merciful.  The 
Lord  guardeth  the  simple :  I  was  brought  low,  and  he 
saved  me.  Return  unto  thy  rest,  O  my  soul ;  for  the 
Lord  hath  dealt  bountifully  with  thee.  For  thou  hast 
delivered  my  soul  from  death,  mine  eyes  from  tears» 
my  feet  from  falling.  I  shall  walk  before  the  Lord  in 
the  land  of  the  living.  I  kept  my  faith  in  God  evep

What  can  I  rerxder  unto  the  Lord  for  all  his  benefits 
towards  me?  I  will  lift  the  cup  of  salvation,  and  call 
upon  the  name  of  the  Lord.  I  will  pay  my  vows  unto 
the  Lord,  yea,  in  the  presence  of  all  his  people.  Pre- 
cious in  the  sight  of  the  Lord  is  the  death  of  his  loving 
ones.  Ah,  Lord,  truly  I  am  thy  servant :  I  am  thy 
servant,  the  son  of  thy  handmaid ;  thou  hast  loosed 
my  bonds.  I  will  offer  to  thee  the  sacrifice  of  thanks- 
giving, and  will  call  upon  the  name  of  the  Lord.  I  will 
pay  my  vows  unto  the  Lord,  yea,  in  the  presence  of  all 
his  people;  in  the  courts  of  the  Lord's  house,  in  the 
midst  of  thee,  O  Jerusalem.    Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Psalm  cxvii, 
O  praise  the  Lord,  all  ye  nations ;  laud  him,  all  ye 
peoples.    For  his   lovingkindness   is  mighty  over  us ; 
and  the  truth  of  the  Lord  endureth  for  ever.    Praise 
ye  the  Lord.

thanks,"  etc.,  to  "ever." 

Psalm  cxviii. 

O  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord ;  for  he  is  good :  for 
his  lovingkindness  endureth  for  ever. 

O  let  Israel  say,  that  his  lovingkindness  endureth 
for  ever. 

O  let  the  house  of  Aaron  say,  that  his  lovingkind- 
ness endureth  for  ever. 

O  let  them  that  fear  the  Lord  say,  that  his  loving- 
kindness endureth  for  ever. 

Out  of  my  straitness  I  called  upon  the  Lord :  the 
Lord  answered  me  with  enlargement.  The  Lord  is  for 
me,  I  will  not  fear:  what  can  man  do  unto  me?  The 
Lord  is  for  me  among  them  that  help  me ;  therefore 
shall  I  see  my  desire  on  them  that  hate  me.  It  is  bet-

It  is  better  to  trust  in  the  Lord  than  to  confide  in 
princes.  All  nations  compassed  me  about :  in  the  name 
of  the  Lord  I  surely  cut  them  down.  They  compassed 
me  about ;  yea,  they  compassed  me  about :  in  the  name 
of  the  Lord  I  surely  cut  them  down.  They  compassed 
me  about  like  bees; — they  were  extinguished  as  a  fire 
of  thorns : — in  the  name  of  the  Lord  I  surely  cut  them 
down.  Thou  didst  thrust  sore  at  me  that  I  might  fall : 
but  the  Lord  helped  me.  The  Lord  is  my  strength 
and  song;  and  he  is  become  my  salvation.  The  voice 
of  exulting  and  salvation  is  in  the  tents  of  the  right- 
eous :  the  right  hand  of  the  Lord  doeth  valiantly.  The 
right  hand  of  the  Lord  is  exalted :  the  right  hand  of 
the  Lord  doeth  valiantly.  I  shall  not  die,  but  live,  and 
recount  the  works  of  the  Lord.  The  Lord  hath  chas- 
tened me  sore :  but  he  hath  not  given  me  over  unto 
death.  Open  to  me  the  gates  of  righteousness :  I  will 
enter  into  them,  I  will  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord.  This 
is  the  gate  of  the  Lord ;  the  righteous  may  enter  into  it. 
I  will  give  thanks  unto  thee,  for  thou  hast  answered 
me,  and  art  become  my  salvation. 

Repeat  this  and  the  next  three  verses. 

The   stone  which  the  builders   rejected   is  become

The  Lord  is  God,  he  hath  given  us  light:  bind  the

altar. 

Thou  art  my  God,  and  I  will  give  thanks  unto  thee : 
thou  art  my  God,  I  will  exalt  thee. 

O  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord;  for  he  is  good:  for 
his  lovingkindness  endureth  for  ever. 

All  thy  works  shall  praise  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  and 
thy  pious  ones,  the  just  who  do  thy  will,  together  with 
all  thy  people,  the  house  of  Israel,  shall  with  exulta- 
tion thank,  bless,  praise,  glorify,  exalt,  reverence, 
sanctify  and  ascribe  sovereignty  unto  thy  name,  O

becoming  to  sing  praises  unto  thy  name,  because  from 
everlasting  to  everlasting  thou  art  God.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  a  King  extolled  with  praises.

The  following  prayer    {Amidah)    to   "as  in   ancient  years" 
p.    324,    is    to    be    said   standing. 

O  Lord,  open  thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall  de- 
clare thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and  God  of 
Jacob,  the. great,  mighty  and  revered  God,  the  most 
high  God,  who  bestowest  lovingkindnesses,  and  pos- 
sessest  all  things;  who  rememberest  the  pious  deeds 
of  the  patriarchs,  and  in  love  wilt  bring  a  redeemer  to 
their  children's  children  for  thy  name's  sake. 

O  king,  Helper,  Savior  and  shield.  Blessed  art  thou, 
O  Lord,  the  Shield  of  Abraham. 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  thou  quickenest 
the  dead,  thou  art  mighty  to  save. 

FrQm  the  Eighth  Day  of  Solemn  Assembly  until  the  First  Day 
of  Passover  say  : — 

Thou  causest  tiie  wind  to  blow  and  the  rain  to  fall. 

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  i^upportest  the 
falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and  keep- 
est  thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.  Who  is 
like  unto  thee.  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and  who  resem- 
bleth  thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and  quickenest,  and 
causest  salvation  to  sprmg  forth? 

Yea,  faithful  art  thou  to  quicken  the  dead.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead.  *

Thou  art  holy,  and  thy  name  is  holy,  and  holy  beings 
praise  thee  daily.  (Selah.)  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord, 
the  holy  God. 

When  the  Reader  repeats  the  Ainidah,  the  following  is  said, 
to  "holy  God." 

*  Reader. — We  will  sanctify  thy  name  in  the  world 
even  as  they  sanctify  it  in  the  highest  heavens,  as  it 
is  written  by  the  hand  of  thy  prophet : 

And  they  caUed  one  unto  the  other  and  said, 
Cong. — Holy,  holy,  holy  is  the  Lord  of  hosts:  the 
whole  earth  is  full  of  his  glory. 

Reader.— Thost  over  against  them  say,  Blessed— 
Cong.— Blessed  be  the  glory  of  the  Lord  from  his 
place. 

Reader. — And  in  thy  Holy  Words  it  is  written,  say- 
ing, 

Cong. — The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy  God,  O 
Zion,  unto  all  generations.    Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Reader. — Unto  all  generations  we  will  declare  thy 
greatness,  and  to  all  eternity  we  will  proclaim  thy 
holiness,  and  thy  praise,  O  our  God,  shall  not  depart 
from  our  mouth  for  ever,  for  thou  art  a  great  and  holy 
God  and  King.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  the  holy 
God. 

The  beginnings  of  the  months  thou  didst  assign  unto 
thy  people  for  a  season  of  atonement  throughout  their 
generations.  While  they  offered  unto  thee  acceptable 
sacrifices,  and  goats  for  a  sin  offering  to  atone  for 
them,  these  were  to  be  a  memorial  for  them  all,  and  the 
salvation  of  their  soul  from  the  hand  of  the  enemy. 
O    do    thou    establish    a  new    altar    on    Zion,    and

scribed for  us  in  thy  Law  through  the  hand  of  Moses 
thy  servant,  by  the  mouth  of  thy  glory,  as  it  is  said: 

And  in  the  beginnings  of  your  months  ye  shall  offer 
a  burnt  offering  unto  the  Lord;  two  young  bullocks 
and  one  ram,  seven  he-lambs  of  the  first  year  without 
blemish.  And  their  meal  offering  and  their  drink  of- 
ferings as  hath  been  ordained,  three  tenth  parts  of  an 
ephah  of  fine  flour  for  each  bullock,  two  tenth  parts  for 
the  ram,  one  tenth  for  each  lamb,  and  wine  according 
to  the  drink  offering  of  each,  a  goat  for  atonement, 
and  two  daily  offerings  according  to  their  institution. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  renew  this  month

his  sons,  the  priests,  thy  holy  people,  as  it  is  said,  The 
Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  ihee:  the  Lord  make  his 
face  to  shine  upon  thee,  and  be  gracious  unto  thee: 
the  Lord  turn  his  face  unto  thee,  and  give  thee  peace. 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  lovingkindness

Law  of  life,  lovingkindness  and  righteousness,  blessing, 
mercy,  life  and  peace ;  and  may  it  be  good  in  thy  sight 
to  bless  thy  people  Israel  at  all  times  and  in  every  hour 
with  thy  peace. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  blessest  thy  people 
Israel  with  peace. 

O  my  God !  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my  lips 
from  speaking  guile;  and  to  such  as  curse  me  let  my 
soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all  as  the  dust. 
Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,  and  let  my  soul  pursue 
thy  commandments.  If  any  design  evil  against  me, 
speedily  make  their  counsel  of  none  effect,  and  frus- 
trate their  designs.  Do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  name,  do 
it  for  the  sake  of  thy  right  hand,  do  it  for  the  sake  of 
thy  holiness,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  Law.  In  order 
that  thy  beloved  ones  may  be  delivered,  O  save  with 
thy  right  hand,  and  answer  me.  Let  the  words  of  my 
mouth  and  the  meditation  of  my  heart  be  acceptable 
before  thee.  O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer.  He 
who  maketh  peace  in  his  high  places,  may  he  make 
peace  for  us  all  and  for  all  Israel,  and  say  ye,  Amen. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  that  the  temple  be  speedily  rebuilt  in  our  days, 
and  grant  our  portion  in  thy  Law.  And  there  we  will 
serve  thee  with  awe,  as  in  the  days  of  old,  and  as  in 
ancient  years.  Then  shall  the  offering  of  Judah  and 
Jerusalem  be  pleasant  unto  the  Lord,  as  in  the  days  of 
old,  and  as  in  ancient  years.

falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and  keepest 
thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.  Who  is  like 
unto  thee,  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and  who  resembletb 
thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and 'quickenest,  and  causest 
salvation  to  spring  forth? 

Yea,  faithful  art  thoa  to  quicken  the  dead.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead.  * 

Thou  art  holy,  and  thy  name  is  holy,  and  holy  beings 
praise  thee  daily.  (Selah.)  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,

from  speaking  guile ;  and  to  such  as  curse  me  let  my 
soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all  as  the  dust. 
Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,  and  let  my  soul  pursue

do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  right  hand,  do  it  for  the  sake

order  that  thy  beloved  ones  may  be  delivered,  O  save

He  who  maketh  peace  in  his  high  places,  may  he  make 
peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel,  and  say  ye,  Amen.

MEDITATION  IN  THE  TABERNACLE. 

To  be  said  in  the  Tabernacle  on  the  first  night  of  the  Festival. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of  my 
fathers,  to  let  thy  divine  presence  abide  among  us. 
Spread  over  us  the  tabernacle  of  thy  peace  in  recogni-  j 
tion  of  the  precept  of  the  Tabernacle  which  we  are 
now  fulfilling,  and  whereby  we  establish  in  fear  and 
love  the  unity  of  thy  holy  and  blessed  name.  O  sur-| 
round  us  with  the  pure  and  holy  radiance  of  thy  glory, 
that  is  spread  over  our  heads  as  the  eagle  over  the 
nest  he  stirreth  up :  and  thence  bid  the  stream  of  life 
flow  in  upon  thy  servant  (thy  handmaid).  And  seeing 
that  I  have  gone  forth  from  my  house  abroad,  and  am 
speeding  the  way  of  thy  commandments,  may  it  be 
accounted  unto  me  as  though  I  had  wandered  far  in 
thy  cause.  O  wash  me  thoroughly  from  mine  iniquity, 
and  cleanse  me  from  my  sin.  Keep  me  in  life,  O 
Lord;  vouchsafe  unto  me  the  abundance  of  thy  bless- 
ings ;  and  to  such  as  are  hungry  and  thirsty  give  breacl 
and  water  unfailingly.  Make  me  worthy  to  dwell  trust- 
ingly in  the  covert  of  thy  shadowing  wings  at  the  time 
when  I  part  from  the  world.  O  deal  graciously  with 
us  in  the  decree  to  which  thou  settest  thy  seal,  and 
make  us  worthy  to  dwell  many  days  upon  the  land,  the 
holy  land,  ever  serving  and  fearing  thee.  Blessed  bej 
the  Lord  for  ever.   Amen  and  Amen. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  thC] 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments, 
and  hast  commanded  us  to  dwell  in  the  Tabernacle. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verce,  who  hast  kept  us  in  life,  and  hast  preserved  us, 
and  enabled  us  to  reach  this  season.

The  following  prayer   (Amidah)   to  "as  in  ancient  years/'  p, 

347,  is  said  standing. 

O  Lord,  open  thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall  de- 
clare thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and  God  of 
Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God,  the  most 
high  God,  who  bestowest  lovingkindnesses  and  posses- 
sest  all  things  who  rememberest  the  pious  deeds  of  the 
patriarchs,  and  in  love  wilt  bring  a  redeemer  to  their 
children's  children  for  thy  name's  sake. 

O  King,  Helper,  Savior  and  Shield.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  the  Shield  of  Abraham. 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  thou  quickenest 
the  dead,  thou  art  mighty  to  save. 

From  the  Sabbath  after  the  Eighth  Day  of  Solemn  Assem-bly 
until  the  First  Day  of  Passover  say:— 

Thou  causest  the  wind  to  blow  and  the  rain  to  fall. 

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest  the 
falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and  keepest 
thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.  Who  is  like 
unto  thee.  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and  who  resembleth 
thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and  quickenest,  and  causest 
salvation  to  spring  forth?     Yea,  faithful  art  thou  to

twice  every  day,  proclaim  with  constancy  the  unity  o^ 
his  name,  saying  in  love,  Hear — 

Cong. — Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord 
is  One. 

Reader. — One  is  Our  God;  he  is  our  Father;  he  is 
our  King,  he  is  our  Savior;  and  he  of  his  mercy  will 
let  us  hear  a  second  time,  in  the  presence  of  all  living 
(his  promise),  "To  be  to  you  for  a  God." 

Cong. — *T  am  the  Lord  your  God."

his  sons,  the  priests,  thy  holy  people,  as  it  is  said,  The 
Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee :  the  Lord  make  his 
face  to  shine  upon  thee,  and  be  gracious  unto  thee : 
the  Lord  turn  his  face  unto  thee,  and  give  thee  peace. 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  lovingkindness 
and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Israel,  thy  people. 
Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of  us  together,  with 
the  light  of  thy  countenance;  for  by  the  light  of  thy 
countenance  thou  hast  given  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  the 
Law  of  life,  lovingkindness  and  righteousness,  bless- 
ing, mercy,  life  and  peace ;  and  may  it  be  good  in  thy 
sight  to  bless  thy  people  Israel  at  all  times  and  in  every 
hour  with  thy  peace. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  blessest  thy  people 
Israel  with  peace. 

O  my  God !  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my  lips 
from  speaking  guile ;  and  to  such  as  curse  me  let  my 
soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all  as  the  dust. 
Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,  and  let  my  soul  pursue 
thy  commandments.  If  any  design  evil  against  me 
speedily  make  their  counsel  of  none  effect,  and  frus- 
trate their  designs.  Do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  name, 
do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  right  hand,  do  it  for  the  sake 
of  thy  holiness,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  Law.  In  order 
that  thy  beloved  ones  may  be  delivered,  O  save  with 
thy  right  hand,  and  answer  me.  Let  the  words  of  my 
mouth  and  the  meditation  of  my  heart  be  acceptable 
before  thee,  O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer.    Hel

J50  SERVICE    FOR    NEW    YEAR 

unto  thee,  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and  who  resembleth 
thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and  quickenest,  and  causest 
salvation  to  spring  forth? 

Who  is  Hke  unto  thee.  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  rememberest  thy  creatures  unto  life? 

Yea,  faUhful  art  thou  to  quicken  the  dead.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead. 

Thou  art  holy,  and  thy  name  is  holy,  and  holy  beinrs 
praise  thee  daily.     (Selah.) 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  thine  awe 
upon  all  thy  works,  and  thy  dread  upon  all  that  thou 
hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear  thee  and  all 
creatures  prostrate  themselves  before  thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  thy  will  with  a  per- 
fect heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God,  that 
dominion  is  thine,  strength  is  in  thy  hand,  and  might 
in  thy  right  hand,  and  that  thy  name  is  to  be  feared 
above  all  that  thou  hast  created. 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  thy  people,  praise 
to  them  that  fear  thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  thee, 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  thee,  joy  to  thy; 
land,  gladness  to  thy  city,  a  flourishing  horn  unto  David 
thy  servant,  and  a  clear  shining  light  unto  the  son  of 
Jesse,  thine  anointed,  speedily  in  our  days.

351  SERVICE    FOR    NEW    YEAR 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re- 
joice, while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all 
wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke,  when 
thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to  pass  away 
from  the  earth. 

And  thou,  O  Lord,  shalt  reign,  thou  alone  over  all 
thy  works  on  Mount  Zion,  the  dwelling  place  of  thy 
glory,  and  in  Jerusalem,  thy  holy  city,  as  it  is  written 
in  thy  Holy  Words,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever, 
thy  God,  O  Zion,  unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  the 
Lord. 

Holy  art  thou,  and  dreaded  is  thy  name,  and  there 
is  no  God  beside  thee,  as  it  is  written.  And  the  Lord 
of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the  holy  God  is 
sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art  thou.  O  Lord, 
the  holy  King. 

Thou  hast  chosen  us  from  all  peoples,  thou  hast 
loved  us  and  taken  pleasure  in  us,  and  hast  exalted 
us  above  all  tongues ;  thou  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy 
commandments  and  brought  us  near  unto  thy  service, 
O  our  King,  and  called  us  by  thy  great  and  holy  name. 

On  Saturday  Night  add  the  following: — 

Thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  hast  made  known  unto  us 
the  judgments  of  thy  righteousness;  thou  hast  taught 
us  to  perform  the  statutes  of  thy  will ;  thou  hast  given 
us,  O  Lord  our  God,  righteous  judgments,  true  laws, 
good  statutes  and  commandments.  Thou  hast  also 
caused  us  to  inherit  seasons  of  joy,  appointed  times

of  holiness,  and  feasts  of  free  will  gifts,  and  hast  given 
us  as  an  heritage  the  holiness  of  the  Sabbath,  the  glory 
of  the  appointed  time,  and  the  celebration  of  the  fes- 
tival. Thou  hast  made  a  distinction,  O  Lord  our  God, 
between  holy  and  profane,  between  light  and  dark- 
ness, between  Israel  and  other  nations,  between  the 
seventh  day  and  the  six  working  days ;  thou  hast  made 
a  distinction  between  the  holiness  of  the  Sabbath  and 
that  of  the  festival,  and  hast  hallowed  the  seventh 
day  above  the  six  working  days ;  thou  hast  distin- 
guished and  sanctified  thy  people  Israel  by  thy  holiness. 
On  Sabbath  add  the  words  in  brackets. 

And  thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  Lord  our  God 
[this  Sabbath  Day  and]  this  Day  of  Memorial,  a  day 
of  blowing  the  Shofar,  [on  Sabbath  substitute  for  the 
last  phrase — a  day  of  remembrance  of  blowing  the 
Shofar,  in  love]  ;  an  holy  convocation  as  a  memorial  of 
the  departure  from  Egypt. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers!  May  our  re- 
membrance rise  and  come  and  be  accepted  before  thee, 
with  the  remembrance  of  our  fathers,  of  Messiah  the 
son  of  David  thy  servant,  of  Jerusalem  thy  holy  city,  , 
and  of  all  thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  bringing  de 
liverance  and  well-being,  grace,  lovingkindness  and 
mercy,  life  and  peace  on  this  Day  of  Memorial.  Re- 
member us,  O  Lord  our  God,  thereon  for  our  well- 
being  ;  be  mindful  of  us  for  blessing,  and  save  us  unto 
life :  by  thy  promise  of  salvation  and  mercy,  spare  us 
and  be  gracious  unto  us ;  have  mercy  upon  us  and  save  (i 
us;  for  our  eyes  are  bent  upon  thee,  because  thou  art 
a  gracious  and  merciful  God  and  King.

is  introduced:— 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  bless  us  with  the 
three-fold  blessing  of  thy  Law  written  by  the  hand 
of  Moses  thy  servant,  which  was  spoken  by  Aaron 
and  his  sons,  the  priests,  thy  holy  people,  as  it  is 
said.  The  Lord  bless  thee  and  keep  thee :  the  Lord 
make  his  face  to  shine  upon  thee,  and  be  gracious  unto 
thee :  the  Lord  turn  his  face  unto  thee,  and  give  thee 
peace.

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  lovingkindness 
and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Israel,  thy  people. 
Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of  us  together,  with 
the  light  of  thy  countenance;  for  by  the  light  of  thy 
countenance  thou  hast  given  us,  O  Lord  our  God, 
the  Law  of  life,  lovingkindness  and  righteousness, 
blessing,  mercy,  life  and  peace ;  and  may  it  be  good 
in  thy  sight  to  bless  thy  people  Israel  at  all  times  and 
in  every  hour  with  thy  peace. 

Ai  the  Afternoon  and  Evening  Service  Say: — 

Grant  abundant  peace  unto  Israel  thy  people  for

and  may  it  be  good  in  thy  sight  to  bless  thy  people 
Israel  at  all  times  and  at  every  hour  with  thy  peace. 

In  the  book  of  life,  blessing,  peace  and  good  sus- 
tenance may  we  be  remembered  and  inscribed  before 
thee,  we  and  all  thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  for  a 
happy  life  and  for  peace.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord, 
who  makest  peace.

And  it  was  evening  and  it  was  morning, — the  sixth 
day. 

And  the  heaven  and  the  earth  were  finished  and  all 
their  host.  And  on  the  seventh  day  God  had  finished 
his  work  which  he  had  made;  and  he  rested  on  the 
seventh  day  from  all  his  work  which  he  had  made. 
And  God  blessed  the  seventh  day,  and  he  hallowed 
it,  because  he  rested  thereon  from  all  his  work  which 
God  had  created  and  made. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  Greatest  the  fruit  of  the  vine. 

On  Sabbath  add  the  words  in  brackets. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni- 
verse, who  hast  chosen  us  from  all  peoples  and  exalted 
us  above  all  tongues,  and  sanctified  us  by  thy  com-

our  God,  [this  Sabbath  day  and]  this  Day  of  Memo- 
rial, a  day  of  blowing  the  Shofar  [on  Sabbath  substitute

fane, between  light  and  darkness,  between  Israel  and 
other  nations,  between  the  seventh  day  and  the  six

ing days;  thou  hast  distinguished  and  sanctified  thy

verse, who  hast  kept  us  in  life,  and  hast  preserved 
us,  and  enabled  us  to  reach  this  season.

O  Lord,  open  thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall 
declare  thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  oui 
fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and  God  of 
Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God,  the  most 
high  God,  who  bestowest  lovingkindnesses  and  pos- 
sessest  all  things;  who  rememberest  the  pious  deeds 
of  the  patriarchs,  and  in  love  wilt  bring  a  redeemer 
to  their  children's  children  for  thy  name's  sake. 

Remember  us  unto  life,  O  King,  who  delightest  in 
life,  and  inscribe  us  in  the  book  of  life,  for  thine  own 
sake,  O  living  God. 

O  King,  Helper,  Savior  and  Shield.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  the  Shield  of  Abraham. 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  thou  quicken- 
est  the  dead,  thou  art  mighty  to  save. 

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest  the 
falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and  keep- 
est  thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.  Who  is 
like  unto  thee.  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and  who  resem- 
bleth  thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and  quickenest,  and 
causest  salvation  to  spring  forth? 

Who  is  like  unto  thee.  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercv  rememberest  thy  creatures  unto  life?

Yea,  faithful  art  thou  to  quicken  the  dead.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead. 

Thou  art  holy,  and  thy  name  is  holy,  and  holy  beings 
praise  thee  daily.     (Selah.) 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  thine  awe 
upon  all  thy  works,  and  thy  dread  upon  all  that  thou 
hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear  thee  and  all 
creatures  prostrate  themselves  before  thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  thy  will  with  a  per- 
fect heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God,  that 
dominion  is  thine,  strength  is  in  thy  hand,  and  might 
in  thy  right  hand,  and  that  thy  name  is  to  be  feared 
above  all  that  thou  hast  created. 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  thy  people,  praise 
to  them  that  fear  thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  thee, 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  thee,  joy  to  thy 
land,  gladness  to  thy  city,  a  flourishing  horn  unto 
David  thy  servant,  and  a  clear  shining  light  unto  the 
son  of  Jesse,  thine  anointed,  speedily  in  our  days. 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re- 
joice, while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all 
wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke,  when 
thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to  pass  away 
from  the  earth.

thy  works  on  Mount  Zion,  the  dwelling  place  of  thy 
glory,  and  in  Jerusalem,  thy  holy  city,  as  it  is  written 
in  thy  Holy  Words,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy 
God,  O  Zion,  unto  all  generations.     Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Holy  art  thou,  and  dreaded  is  thy  name,  and  there 
is  no  God  beside  thee,  as  it  is  written,  And  the  Lord 
of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the  holy  God  is 
sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord, 
the  holy  King. 

Thou  hast  chosen  us  from  all  peoples;  thou  hast 
loved  us  and  taken  pleasure  in  us,  and  hast  exalted 
us  above  all  tongues;  thou  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy 
commandments,  and  brought  us  near  unto  thy  service, 
O  our  King,  and  called  us  by  thy  great  and  holy  name. 

On  Sabbath  add  the  words  in  brackets. 

And  thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  Lord  our  God, 
[this  Sabbath  day  and]  this  Day  of  Memorial,  a  day 
of  blowing  the  Shofar  [on  Sabbaths  substitute  for  the 
last  phrase — a  day  of  remembrance  of  blowing  the  Sho-  , 
far,  in  love]  ;  an  holy  convocation,  as  a  memorial  of, 
the  departure  from  Egypt. 

But  on  account  of  our  sins  we  were  exiled  from  our] 
land,  and  removed  far  from  our  country,  and  we  arej 
unable  to  fulfil  our  obligations  in  thy  chosen  house, 
that  great  and  holy  temple  which  was  called  by  thy

We  therefore  hope  in  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  that 
we,  may  speedily  behold  the  glory  of  thy  might,  when 
thou  wilt  remove  the  abominations  from  the  earth, 
and  the  idols  will  be  utterly  cut  off,  when  the  world 
will  be  perfected  under  the  kingdom  of  the  Almighty, 
and  all  the  children  of  flesh  will  call  upon  thy  name, 
when  thou  wilt  turn  unto  thyself  all  the  wicked  of  the 
earth.  Let  all  the  inhabitants  of  the  world  perceive 
and  know  that  unto  thee  every  knee  must  bow,  every 
tongue  must  swear.  Before  thee,  O  Lord  our  God, 
let  them  bow  and  fall ;  and  unto  thy  glorious  name  let 
them  give  honor ;  let  them  all  accept  the  yoke  of  thy 
kingdom,  and  do  thou  reign  over  them  speedily,  and

in  thy  Law,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever. 

And  it  is  said.  He  hath  not  beheld  iniquity  in  Jacob, 
neither  hath  he  seen  perverseness  in  Israel:  the  Lord 
his  God  is  with  him,  and  the  trumpet  shout  of  a  King 
is  among  them.    And  it  is  said,  And  he  became  King  in 
Jeshurun,  when  the  heads  of  the  people  were  gathered,  i 
the  tribes  of  Israel  together.    And  in  thy  Holy  Words 
it  is  written,  saying.  For  the  kingdom  is  the  Lord's,  | 
and  he  is  ruler  over  the  nations.     And  it  is  said,  The 
Lord  reigneth;  he  hath  robed  him   in  majesty;  the  ' 
Lord  hath  robed  him,  yea,  he  hath  girded  himself  with  «

glory?  The  Lord,  strong  and  mighty,  the  Lord  mighty 
in  battle.  Lift  up  your  heads,  O  ye  gates;  yea,  Hft 
them  up,  ye  everlasting  doors,  that  the  King  of  glory 
may  come  in.  Who,  then,  is  the  King  of  glory?  The 
Lord  of  hosts,  he  is  the  King  of  glory.  (Selah.)  And 
by  the  hands  of  thy  servants,  the  prophets,  it  is  writ- 
ten, saying,  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  the  King  of  Israel 
and  his  Redeemer,  the  Lord  of  hosts :  I  am  the  first, 
and  I  am  the  last ;  and  beside  me  there  is  no  God. 
And  it  is  said.  And  saviors  shall  come  up  on  Mount 
Zion  to  judge  the  Mount  of  Esau,  and  the  kingdom 
shall  be  the  Lord's.  And  it  is  said,  And  the  Lord 
shall  be  King  over  all  the  earth :  in  that  day  shall  the 
Lord  be  One  and  his  name  One.  And  in  thy  Law  it 
is  written  saying.  Hear,  O  Israel:  the  Lord  our  God, 
the  Lord  is  One. 


Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  reign  thou  in 
thy  glory  over  the  whole  universe,  and  be  exalted 
above  all  the  earth  in  thine  honor,  and  shine  forth  in 
the  splendor  and  excellence  of  thy  might  upon  all 
the  inhabitants  of  thy  world,  that  whatsoever  hath 
been  made  may  know  that  thou  hast  made  it,  and 
whatsoever  hath  been  created  may  understand  that 
thou  hast  created  it,  and  whatsoever  hath  bieath  in 
its  nostrils  may  say,  the  Lord  God  of  Israel  is  King 
and    his   dominion   ruleth  over   all.      [Our  God  and

God  of  our  fathers,  accept  our  rest.]  Sanctify  us  by 
thy  commandments,  and  grant  our  portion  in  thy  Law; 
satisfy  us  with  thy  goodness,  and  gladden  us  with 
thy  salvation :  [and  in  thy  love  and  favor,  O  Lord 
our  God,  let  us  inherit  thy  holy  Sabbath;  and  may 
Israel,  who  hallow  thy  name,  rest  thereon].  O  purify 
our  hearts  to  serve  thee  in  truth,  for  thou  art  God 
in  truth,  and  thy  word  is  truth,  and  endureth  for 
ever.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,)  King  over  all  the 
earth,  who  sanctifiest  [the  Sabbath  and]  Israel  and 
the  Day  of  Memorial. 

Thou  rememberest  what  was  wrought  from  eternity 
and  art  mindful  of  all  that  hath  been  formed  from  of 
old:  before  thee  all  secrets  are  revealed  and  the  mul- 
titude of  hidden  things  from  the  beginning;  for  there 
is  no  forgetfulness  before  the  throne  of  thy  glory; 
nor  is  there  ought  hidden  from  thine  eyes.  Thou 
rememberest  every  deed  that  hath  been  done :  not  a 
creature  is  concealed  from  thee :  all  things  are  mani- 
fest and  known  unto  thee,  O  Lord  our  God,  who 
lookest  and  seest  to  the  end  of  all  generations.  For 
thou  wilt  bring  on  the  appointed  time  of  memorial 
when  every  spirit  and  soul  shall  be  visited,  and  the 
multitudinous  works  be  remembered  with  the  innum- 
erable throng  of  thy  creatures.  From  the  beginning 
thou  didst  make  this  thy  purpose  known,  and  from 
aforetime  thou  didst  disclose  it.  This  day,  on  which 
was  the  beginning  of  thy  work,  is  a  memorial  of  the 
first  day,  for  it  is  a  statute  for  Israel,  a  decree  of  the 
God  of  Jacob.  Thereon  also  sentence  is  pronounced 
upon    countries, — which    of    them    is    destined  to  the

to  plenty;  and  each  separate  creature  is  visited  there- 
on, and  recorded  for  life  or  for  death.  Who  is  not 
visited  on  this  day?  For  the  remembrance  of  every 
creature  cometh  before  thee,  each  man's  deeds  and 
destiny,  his  works  and  ways,  his  thoughts  and  schemes, 
his  imaginings  and  achievements.  Happy  is  the  man 
who  forgetteth  thee  not,  and  the  son  of  man  who 
strengtheneth  himself  in  thee;  for  they  that  seek  thee 
shall  never  stumble,  neither  shall  any  be  put  to  shame 
who  trust  in  thee.  Yea,  the  remembrance  of  all  works 
Cometh  before  thee,  and  thou  enquirest  into  the  doings 
of  them  all.  Of  Noah  also  thou  wast  mindful  in  thy 
love,  and  didst  visit  him  with  a  promise  of  salvation 
and  mercy,  when  thou  broughtest  the  waters  of  the 
flood  to  destroy  all  flesh  on  account  of  their  evil  deeds. 
So  his  remembrance  came  before  thee,  O  Lord  our 
God,  to  increase  his  seed  like  the  dust  of  the  earth, 
and  his  offspring  like  the  sand  of  the  sea :  as  it  is 
written  in  thy  Law,  And  God  remembered  Noah,  and 
every  living  thing,  and  all  the  cattle  that  were  with 
him  in  the  ark:  and  God  made  a  wind  to  pass  over 
the  earth,  and  the  waters  subsided.  And  it  is  said, 
And  God  heard  their  groaning,  and  God  remembered 
his  covenant  with  Abraham,  with  Isaac  and  with  Jacob. 
And  it  is  said.  Then  will  I  remember  my  covenant  with

Jacob;  and  also  my  covenant  with  Isaac,  and  also  my 
covenant  with  Abraham  will  I  remember;  and  I  will 
remember  the  land.  And  in  thy  Holy  Words  it  is  writ- 
ten saying,  He  hath  made  a  memorial  for  his  wondrous 
works :  the  Lord  is  gracious  and  full  of  compassion. 
And  it  is  said.  He  hath  given  food  unto  them  that  fear 
him:  he  will  ever  be  mindful  of  his  covenant.  And 
it  is  said,  And  he  remembered  for  them  his  covenant, 
and  repented  according  to  the  multitude  of  his  loving- 
kindnesses.  And  by  the  hands  of  thy  servants,  the 
prophets,  it  is  written  saying,  Go  and  cry  in  ihe  ears 
of  Jerusalem,  saying,  Thus  saith  the  Lord,  I  remember 
for  thee  the  kindness  of  thy  youth,  the  love  of  thy 
bridal  state ;  how  thou  wentest  after  me  In  the  wilder- 
ness, in  a  land  that  was  not  sown.  And  it  is  said, 
Nevertheless,  I  will  remember  my  covenant  with  thee 
in  the  days  of  thy  youth,  and  I  will  establish  unto 
thee  an  everlasting  covenant.  And  it  is  said,  Is  Eph- 
raim  a  precious  son  unto  me?  Is  he  a  caressed  child? 
As  often  as  I  spake  against  him,  I  earnestly  remem- 
bered him ;  therefore  my  heart  yearneth  for  him :  I 
will  surely  have  mercy  upon  him,  saith  the  Lord. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  let  us  be  remem- 
bered by  thee  for  good :  grant  us  a  visitation  of  sal- 
vation and  mercy  from  thy  heavens,  the  heavens  of 
old ;  and  remember  unto  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  the  cov- 
enant and  the  lovingkindness  and  the  oath  which  thou 
swarest  unto  Abraham  our  father  on  Mount  Moriah: 
and  may  the  binding  with  which  Abraham  our  father 
bound  his  son  Isaac  on  the  altar  appear  before  thee.

how  he  overbore  his  compassion  in  order  to  perform 
thy  will  with  a  perfect  heart.  So  may  thy  compassion 
overbear  thine  anger  against  us ;  in  thy  great  goodness 
may  the  fierceness  of  thy  wrath  turn  aside  from  thy 
people,  thy  city  and  thine  inheritance.  Fulfil  unto  us, 
O  Lord  our  God,  the  word  in  which  thou  hast  bidden 
us  trust  in  thy  Law  through  the  hand  of  Moses  thy 
servant,  from  the  mouth  of  thy  glory,  as  it  is  said, 
But  I  will  remember  unto  them  the  covenant  of  their 
ancestors,  whom  I  brought  forth  out  of  the  land  of 
Lgypt  in  the  sight  of  the  nations,  that  I  might  be  their 
God :  I  am  the  Lord.  For  thou  art  he  who  remem- 
bereth  from  eternity  all  forgotten  things,  and  before 
the  throne  of  whose  glory  there  is  no  forgetfulness. 
O  remember  the  binding  of  Isaac  this  day  in  mercy 
unto  his  seed.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  re- 
memberest  the  covenant. 

Thou  didst  reveal  thyself  in  a  cloud  of  glory  unto 
thy  holy  people  in  order  to  speak  with  them.  Out  of 
heaven  thou  didst  make  them  hear  thy  voice  and  wast 
revealed  unto  them  in  clouds  of  purity.  The  whole 
world  trembled  at  thy  presence,  and  the  works  of  cre- 
ation were  in  awe  of  thee,  when  thou  didst  thus  reveal 
thyself,  O  our  King,  upon  Mount  Sinai  to  teach  thy 
people  the  law  and  commandments,  and  didst  make 
them  hear  thy  majestic  voice  and  thy  holy  utterances 
out  of  flames  of  fire.  Amidst  thunders  and  lightnings 
thou  didst  manifest  thyself  to  them,  and  while  the 
Shofar  sounded  thou  didst  shine  forth  upon  them ;  as 
it  is  written  in  thy  Law,  And  it  came  to  pass  on  the

the  thunderings  and  the  lightnings,  and  the  sound  of 
the  Shofar,  and  the  mountain  smoking:  and  when  the 
people  saw  it,  they  were  moved  and  stood  afar  off. 
And  in  thy  Holy  Words  itts  written,  saying,  God  is 
gone  up  with  a  shout,  the  Lord  with  the  sound  of  a 
Shofar.     And  it  is  said,  With  trumpets  and  sound  of 
Shofar   shout   joyously   before    the  King,    the    Lord. 
And  it  is  said.  Blow  the  Shofar  on  the  new  moon,  at 
the  beginning  of  the  month,  for  our  day  of  festival;   j 
for  it  is  a  statute  for  Israel,  a  decree  of  the  God  of 
Jacob.     And  it  is  said.   Praise  ye  the  Lord.     Praise 
God  in  his  sanctuary:  praise  him  in  the  firmament  of 
his  power.    Praise  him  for  his  mighty  acts :  praise  him   , 
according  to  his  abundant  greatness.     Praise  him  with  || 
the  blast  of  the  Shofar:  praise  him  with  the  harp  and  j 
the  lyre.      Praise  him  with   the   timbrel   and   dance: 
praise  him   with   stringed   instruments   and   the   pipe,  | 
Praise  h^.m  with  the  clear-toned  cymbals:  praise  him 
with  the  loud-sounding  cymbals.     Let  everything  that 
hath  breath  praise   the   Lord.      Praise  ye   the   Lord. 
And  by  the  hands  of  thy  servants,  the  prophets,  it 
is  written  saying.  All  ye  inhabitants  of  the  world,  and 
ye  dwellers  on  the  earth,  when  an  ensign  is  lifted  up 
on  the  mountains,   see  ye,  and  when  the  Shofar  is

pass  on  that  day,  that-  a  great  Shofar  shall  be  blown ; 
and  they  shall  come  who  were  lost  in  the  land  of  As-

SERVICE  FOR  THE  DAY  Of  ATONEMENT 

O  Lord,  open  thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall 
declare  thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and  God  of 
Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God,  the  most 
high  God,  who  bestowest  lovingkindnesses,  and  pos- 
sessest  all  things,  who  rememberest  the  pious  deeds 
of  the  patriarchs,  and  in  love  wilt  bring  a  redeemer 
to  their  children's  children  for  thy  name's  sake. 

Remember  us  unto  life,  O  King,  who  delightest  in 
life,  and  inscribe  us  in  the  book  of  life,  for  thine  own 
sake,  O  living  God. 

O  King,  Helper,  Savior  and  Shield.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  the  Shield  of  Abraham. 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  thou  quickenest 
the  dead,  thou  art  mighty  to  save. 

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest  the 
falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and  keep- 
est  thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.  Who  is 
like  unto  thee,  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and  who  re- 
scmbleth  thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and  quickenest, 
and  causest  salvation  to  spring  forth?

StKVlCE  FOR  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT 


Who  is  like  unto  thee,   Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  rememberest  thy  creatures  unto  life? 

Yea,  faithful  art  thou  to  quicken  the  dead.    Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead. 

Thou  art  holy,  and  thy  name  is  holy,  and  holy  beingj 
praise  thee  daily.     (Selah.) 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  thine  aw< 
upon  all  thy  works,  and  thy  dread  upon  all  that  thot 
hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear  thee  and  all  crea- 
tures prostrate  themselves  before  thee,  that  they  ma) 
all  form  a  single  band  to  do  thy  will  with  a  perfecl 
heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God,  that  domin- 
ion is  thine,  strength  is  in  thy  hand,  and  might  in 
thy  right  hand,  and  that  thy  name  is  to  be  feared  above 
all  that  thou  hast  created. 


Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  thy  people,  praisi 
to  them  that  fear  thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  thee 
and  free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  thee,  joy  to  thj 
land,  gladness  to  thy  city,  a  flourishing  horn  untc 
David  thy  servant,  and  a  clear  shining  light  unto  th 
son  of  Jesse,  thine  anointed,  speedily  in  our  days. 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the 
upright  shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  re^ 
joice,   while  iniquity   shall  close  her  mouth,   and  al

wickedness  shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke,  when 
thou  makest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to  pass  away

is  no  God  beside  thee,  as  it  is  written.  And  the  Lord 
of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the  holy  God  is 
sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord, 
the  holy  King. 

Thou  hast  chosen  us  from  all  peoples,  thou  hast 
loved  us  and  taken  pleasure  in  us,  and  hast  exalted  us 
above  all  tongues;  thou  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  com-'

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers !  May  our  remem- 
brance rise  and  come  and  be  accepted  before  thee, 
with  the  remembrance  of  our  fathers,  of  Messiah,  the 
son  of  David  thy  servant,  of  Jerusalem  thy  holy  city, 
and  of  all  thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  bringing 
deliverance  and  well-being,  grace,  lovingkindness  and 
mercy,  life  and  peace  on  this  Day  of  Atonement.  Re- 
member us,  O  Lord  our  God,  thereon  for  our  well- 
being;  be  mindful  of  us  for  blessing,  and  save  us  unto 
life;  by  thy  promise  of  salvation  and  mercy,  spare 
us  and  be  gracious  unto  us;  have  mercy  upon  us  and 
save  us ;  for  our  eyes  are  bent  upon  thee,  because  thou 
art  a  gracious  and  merciful  God  and  King. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  pardon  our  iniqui- 
ties [on  this  Sabbath  day,  and]  on  this  Day  of  Atone- 
ment; blot  out  our  transgressions  and  our  sins,  and 
make  them  pass  away  from  before  thine  eyes ;  as  it  is 
said,  I  even  I,  am  he  that  blotteth  out  thy  transgres- 
sions for  mine  own  sake ;  and  I  will  not  remember  thy 
sins.  And  it  is  said,  I  have  blotted  out,  as  a  cloud, 
thy  transgressions,  and,  as  a  mist,  thy  sins :  return  unto 
me,  for  I  have  redeemed  thee.  And  it  is  said,  For  on 
this  day  shall  atonement  be  made  for  you,  to  cleanse  I 
you;  from  all  your  sins  shall  ye  be  clean  before  the 
Lord.  [Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  accept  our !';

38^  SERVICE    FOR   DAY   OF   ATONEMENT 

three-fold  blessing  of  thy  Law  written  by  the  hand  of 
Moses  thy  servant,  which  was  spoken  by  Aaron  and 
his  sons,  the  priests,  thy  holy  people,  as  it  is  said.  The    i 
Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee :  the  Lord  make  his    i 
face  to  shine  upon  thee,  and  be  gracious  unto  thee ; 
the  Lord  turn  his  face  unto  thee,  and  give  thee  peace. 

At  the  Morning  Service  say: — 

Grant  peace,  welfare,  blessing,  grace,  lovingkindness 
and  mercy  unto  us  and  unto  all  Israel,  thy  people. 
Bless  us,  O  our  Father,  even  all  of  us  together,  with 
the  light  of  thy  countenance ;  for  by  the  light  of  thy 
countenance  thou  hast  given  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  the 
Law  of  life,  lovingkindness  and  righteousness,  blessing, 
mercy,  life  and  peace;  and  may  it  be  good  in  thy 
sight  to  bless  thy  people  Israel  at  all  times  and  in  every 
hour  with  thy  peace. 

At  the  Afternoon  and  Evening  Service  say: — 

Grant  abundant  peace  unto  Israel  thy  people  for 
ever ;  for  thou  art  the  sovereign  Lord  of  all  peace ;  and 
may  it  be  good  in  thy  sight  to  bless  thy  people  Israel 
at  all  times  and  at  every  hour  with  thy  peace. 

In  the  book  of  life,  blessing,  peace  and  good  sus- 
tenance may  we  be  remembered  and  inscribed  before 
thee,  we  and  all  thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  for  a 
happy  life  and  for  peace.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord, 
who  makest  peace. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers, 

let  our  prayer  come  before  thee;  hide  not  thyself 
from  our  supplication,  for  we  are  not  arrogant  and 
stiff-necked,  that  we  should  say  before  thee,  O  Lord 
our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  we  are  righteous 
and  have  not  sinned;  but  verily,  we  have  sinned.

384  SERVICE   FOR   DAY   OF  ATONEMENT 

We  have  trespassed,  we  have  been  faithless,  we  have 
robbed,  we  have  spoken  basely,  we  have  committed 
iniquity,  we  have  wrought  unrighteousness,  we  have 
been  presumptuous,  we  have  done  violence,  we  have 
forged  lies,  we  have  counselled  evil,  we  have  spoken 
falsely,  we  have  scoffed,  we  have  revolted,  we  have 
blasphemed,  we  have  been  rebellious,  we  have  acted 
perversely,  we  have  transgressed,  we  have  persecuted, 
we  have  been  stiff-necked,  we  have  done  wickedly,  we 
have  corrupted  ourselves,  we  have  committed  abomi- 
nation, we  have  gone  astray,  and  we  have  led  astray. 

We  have  turned  aside  from  thy  commandments  and 
good  judgments,  and  it  hath  profited  us  nought.  But 
thou  art  righteous  in  all  that  is  come  upon  us ;  for  thou 
hast  acted  truthfully,  but  we  have  wrought  unright- 
'iousness. 

What  shall  we  say  before  thee,  O  thou  who  dwellest 
»n  high,  and  what  shall  we  recount  unto  thee,  thou  who 
abidest  in  the  heavens?  dost  thou  not  know  all  things, 
both  the  hidden  and  the  revealed? 

Thou  knowest  the  secrets  of  eternity  and  the  most 
hidden  mysteries  of  all  living.  Thou  searchest  the 
innermost  recesses,  and  triest  the  reins  and  the  heart. 
Nought  is  concealed  from  thee,  or  hidden  from  thine 
eyes. 

May  it  then  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of ; 
our  fathers,  to  forgive  us  for  all  our  sins,  to  pardon  us 
for  all  our  iniquities,  and  to  grant  us  remission  for  all 
our  transgressions.

And  also  for  the  sins  for  which  we  are  liable  to  any 
of  the  four  death  penalties  inflicted  by  the  court, — 
stoning,  burning,  beheading,  and  strangling;  for  the 
violation  of  positive,  or  for  the  violation  of  negative 
precepts,  whether  these  latter  do  or  do  not  admit  of  a 
remedy  by  the  subsequent  fulfilment  of  a  positive  com- 
mand; for  all  our  sins,  whether  they  be  or  be  not 
manifest  to  us.  Such  sins  as  are  manifest  to  us,  we 
have  already  declared  and  confessed  unto  thee,  while 
such  as  are  not  manifest  unto  us,  are  manifest  and 
known  unto  thee,  according  to  the  word  that  hath  been 
spoken,  The  secret  things  belong  unto  the  Lord  our 
God;  but  the  things  that  are  revealed  belong  unto  us 
and  to  our  children  for  ever,  that  we  may  do  all  the 
words  of  this  Law.  For  thou  art  the  forgiver  of  Israel 
and  the  pardoner  of  the  tribes  of  Jeshurun  in  every 
generation,  and  beside  thee  we  have  no  king,  who  par- 
doneth  and  forgiveth. 

O  my  God,  before  I  was  formed  I  was  nothing 
worth,  and  now  that  I  have  been  formed  I  am  but 
as  though  I  had  not  been  formed.  Dust  am  I  in  my  life : 
how  much  more  so  in  my  death.     Behold  I  am  before

O  my  God !  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my  lips 
from  speaking  guile;  and  to  such  as  curse  me  let  my 
soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all  as  the  dust. 
Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,  and  let  my  soul  pursue  thy 
commandments.  If  any  design  evil  against  me,  speedily 
make  their  counsel  of  none  effect,  and  frustrate  their 
designs.  Do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  name,  do  it  for  the 
sake  of  thy  right  hand,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  holi- 
ness, do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  Law.  In  order  that  thy 
beloved  ones  may  be  delivered,  O  save  with  thy  right 
hand,  and  answer  me.  Let  the  words  of  my  mouth  and 
the  meditation  of  my  heart  be  acceptable  before  thee,  O 
Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer.  He  who  maketh 
peace  in  his  high  places,  may  he  make  peace  for  us  and 
for  all  Israel,  and  say  ye,  Amen. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  that  the  temple  be  speedily  rebuilt  in  our  days, 
and  grant  our  portion  in  thy  Law.  And  there  we  will 
serve  thee  with  awe,  as  in  the  days  of  old,  and  as  in 
ancient  years.  Then  shall  the  offering  of  Judah  and 
Jerusalem  be  pleasant  unto  the  Lord,  as  in  the  days 
of  old,  and  as  in  ancient  years.

O  Lord,  open  thou  my  lips,  and  my  mouth  shall  de- 
clare thy  praise. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  God  of  Abraham,  God  of  Isaac,  and  God  of 
Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God,  the  most 
hio-h  God,  who  bestowest  lovingkindnesses  and  posses- 
sest  all  things ;  who  rememberest  the  pious  deeds  of  the 
patriarchs,  and  in  love  wilt  bring  a  redeemer  to  their 
children's  children  for  thy  name's  sake. 

Remember  us  unto  life,  O  King,  who  delightest  in 
life,  and  inscribe  us  in  the  book  of  life,  for  thine  own 
sake,  O  living  God. 

O  King,  Helper,  Savior  and  Shield.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  the  Shield  of  Abraham. 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  thou  quickenest 
the  dead,  thou  art  mighty  to  save. 

Thou  sustainesL  the  living  with  lovingkindness, 
quickenest  the  dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest  the 
falling,  healest  the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and  keepest 
thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.  Who  is  like 
unto  thee  Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and  who  resembleth 
thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and  quickenest,  and  causest 
salvation  to  spring  forth? 

Who  is  like  unto  thee.  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  rememberest  thy  creatures  unto  life?

Yea,  faithful  art  thou  to  quicken  the  dead.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead. 

Thou  art  holy,  and  thy  name  is  holy,  and  holy  beings 
praise  thee  daily.     (Selah.) 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  thine  awe 
upon  all  thy  works,  and  thy  dread  upon  all  that  thou 
hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear  thee  and  all  crea- 
tures prostrate  themselves  before  thee,  that  they  may 
all  form  a  single  band  to  do  thy  will  with  a  perfect 
heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God,  that  domin- 
ion is  thine,  strength  is  in  thy  hand,  and  might  in  thy 
right  hand,  and  that  thy  name  is  to  be  feared  above  all 
that  thou  hast  created. 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  thy  people,  praise  to 
them  that  fear  thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  thee,  and 
free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  thee,  joy  to  thy  land, 
gladness  to  thy  city,  a  flourishing  horn  unto  David  thy 
servant,  and  a  clear  shining  light  unto  the  son  of  Jesse, 
thine  anointed,  speedily  in  our  days. 

Then  shall  the  just  also  see  and  be  glad,  and  the  up- 
right shall  exult,  and  the  pious  triumphantly  rejoice, 
while  iniquity  shall  close  her  mouth,  and  all  wicked- 
ness shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke,  when  thou 
tnakest  the  dominion  of  arrogance  to  pass  away  from 
the  earth.

thy  works  on  Mount  Zion,  the  dwelling  place  of  thy 
glory,  and  in  Jerusalem,  thy  holy  city,  as  it  is  written 
in  thy  Holy  Words,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever,  thy 
God,  O  Zion,  unto  all  generations.    Praise  ye  the  Lord. 

Holy  art  thou,  and  dreaded  is  thy  name,  and  there  is 
no  God  beside  thee,  as  it  is  written.  And  the  Lord  of 
hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the  holy  God  is  sancti- 
fied in  righteousness.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  the 
holy  King. 

Thou  hast  chosen  us  from  all  peoples,  thou  hast 
loved  us  and  taken  pleasure  in  us,  and  hast  exalted  us 
above  all  tongues ;  thou  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  com- 
mandments, and  hast  brought  us  near  unto  thy  service, 
O  our  King,  and  hast  called  us  by  thy  great  and  holy 
name.

cleanse  you ;  from  all  your  sins  shall  ye  be  clean  before

and  purify  our  hearts  to  serve  thee  in  truth;  for  thou 
art  the  forgiver  of  Israel  and  the  pardoner  of  the  tribes 
of  Jeshurun  in  every  generation,  and  beside  thee  we 
have  no  king  who  pardoneth  and  forgiveth.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  thou  King  who  pardonest  and  for- 
givest  our  iniquities  and  the  iniquities  of  thy  people, 
the  house  of  Israel,  who  makest  our  trespasses  to  pass 
away  year  by  year,  King  over  all  the  earth,  who  sancti- 
fiest  [the  Sabbath  and]  Israel  and  the  day  of  Atone- 
ment. • 

Accept,  O  Lord  our  God,  thy  people  Israel  and 
their  prayer;  restore  the  service  to  the  oracle  of  thy 
house ;  receive  in  love  and  favor  both  the  fire  offerings 
of  Israel  and  their  prayer ;  and  may  the  service  of  thy 
people  Israel  be  ever  acceptable  unto  thee. 

And  let  our  eyes  behold  thy  return  in  mercy  to  Zion. 
Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  restorest  thy  divine 
presence  unto  Zion.

Moses  thy  servant,  which  was  spoken  by  Aaron  and 
his  sons,  the  priests,  tliy  holy  people,  as  it  is  said.  The

We  have  trespassed,  we  have  been  faithless,  we  have 
robbed,  we  have  spoken  basely,  we  have  committed 
iniquity,  we  have  wrought  unrighteousness,  we  have 
been  presumptuous,  we  have  done  violence,  we  have 
forged  lies,  we  have  counselled  evil,  we  have  spoken 
falsely,  we  have  scoffed,  we  have  revolted,  we  have 
blasphemed,  we  have  been  rebellious,  we  have  acted 
perversely,  we  have  transgressed,  we  have  persecuted, 
we  have  been  stiff-necked,  we  have  done  wickedly,  we 
have  corrupted  ourselves,  we  have  committed  abomina- 
tion, we  have  gone  astray,  and  we  have  led  astray. 

We  have  turned  aside  from  thy  commandments  and 
good  judgments,  and  it  hath  profited  us  nought.  But 
thou  art  righteous  in  all  that  is  come  upon  us ;  for  thou 
hast  acted  truthfully,  but  we  have  wrought  unright- 
eousness. 

What  shall  we  say  before  thee,  O  thou  who  dwellest 
on  high,  and  what  shall  we  recount  unto  thee,  thou 
who  abidest  in  the  heavens?  dost  thou  not  know  all 
things,  both  the  hidden  and  the  revealed? 

Thou  knowest  the  secrets  of  eternity  and  the  most 
hidden  mysteries  of  all  living.  Thou  searchest  the 
innermost  recesses,  and  triest  the  reins  and  the  heart 
Nought  is  concealed  from  thee,  or  hidden  from  thine 
eyes. 

May  it  then  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God 
of  our  fathers,  to  forgive  us  for  all  our  sins,  to  pardon 
us  for  all  our  iniquities,  and  to  grant  us  remission  foi

And  for  the  sins  for  which  we  are  Hable  to  the  penalty 

of  forty  stripes: 
And  for  the  sins  for  which  we  are  hable  to  the  penalty 

of   death   by   the   hand   of   heaven: 
And  for  the  sins  for  which  we  are  liable  to  the  penalty 

of  excision  and  childlessness: 

For  all  these,  O  God  of  forgiveness,  for- 
give   us,    pardon    us,    grant    us     remission; 

And  also  for  the  sins  for  which  we  are  liable  to  any 
of  the  four  death  penalties  inflicted  by  the  court, — 
stoning,  burning,  beheading,  and  strangling;  for  the 
violation  of  positive,  or  for  the  violation  of  negative 
precepts,  whether  these  latter  do  or  do  not  admit  of  a 
remedy  by  the  subsequent  fulfilment  of  a  positive 
command ;  for  all  our  sins,  whether  they  be  or  be 
not  manifest  to  us.  Such  sins  as  are  manifest  to  us, 
we  have  already  declared  and  confessed  unto  thee, 
while  such  as  are  not  manifest  unto  us,  are  manifest 
and  known  unto  thee,  according  to  the  word  that  hath 
been  spoken,  The  secret  things  belong  unto  the  Lord 
our  God ;  but  the  things  that  are  revealed  belong  unto 
us  and  to  our  children  for  ever,  that  we  may  do  all 
/the  words  of  this  Law.  For  thou  art  the  forgiver 
of  Israel  and  the  pardoner  of  the  tribes  of  Jeshurun 
in  every  generation,  and  beside  thee  we  have  no  king, 
who  pardoneth  and  forgiveth. 

O  my  God,  before  I  was  formed  I  was  nothing 
worth,  and  now  that  I  have  been  formed  I  am  but  as 
/though  I  had  not  been  formed.  Dust  am  I  in  my  life: 
how  much  more  so  in  my  death.  Behold  I  am  before 
thee  like   a   vessel   filled   with   shame   and   confusion.'

O  may  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of  my 
fathers,  that  I  may  sin  no  more,  and  as  to  the  sins  I 
have  committed,  purge  them  away  in  thine  abounding 
compassion  though  not  by  means  of  affliction  and  sore 
diseases. 

O  my  God !  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my  lips 
from  speaking  guile ;  and  to  such  as  curse  me  let  my 
soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all  as  the  dust. 
Open  my  heart  to  thy  Law,  and  let  my  soul  pursue  thy 
commandments.  If  any  design  evil  against  me,  speed- 
ily make  their  counsel  of  none  effect,  and  frustrate 
their  designs.  Do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  name,  do  it 
for  the  sake  of  thy  right  hand,  do  it  for  the  sake  of 
thy  holiness,  do  it  for  the  sake  of  thy  Law.  In  order 
that  thy  beloved  ones  may  be  delivered,  O  save  with 
thy  right  hand,  and  answer  me.  Let  the  words  of  my 
mouth  and  the  meditation  of  my  heart  be  acceptable 
before  thee,  O  Lord,  my  Rock  and  my  Redeemer.  He 
who  maketh  peace  in  his  high  places,  may  he  make 
peace  for  us  and  for  all  Israel,  and  say  ye.  Amen. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  our  God  and  God  of  our 
fathers,  that  the  temple  be  speedily  rebuilt  in  our  days,, 
and  grant  our  portion  in  thy  Law.  And  there  we  will 
serve  thee  with  awe,  as  in  the  days  of  old,  and  as  in 
ancient  years.  Then  shall  the  offering  of  Judah  and 
Jerusalem  be  pleasant  unto  the  Lord,  as  in  the  days  of 
old,  and  as  in  ancient  years.

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Loid  our  God  and  God  of  our

of  Jacob,  the  great,  mighty  and  revered  God,  the  most

Remember  us  unto  life,  O  King,  who  delightest  in 
life,  and  seal  us  in  the  book  of  life,  for  thine  own 
sake,  O  living  God. 

O  King,  Helper,  Sa^  ior  and  Shield.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  the  Shied  of  Abraham. 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  thou  quickenest 
the  dead,  thou  art  mighty  to  save. 

Thou  sustainest  the  living  with  lovingkind-

supportest     the     falling,     healest     the     sick,     loosest

the  bound,  and  keepest  thy  faith  to  them  that  sleep  io 
the  dust.  Who  is  Hke  unto  thee,  Lord  of  mighty  acts, 
and  who  resembleth  thee,  O  King,  who  killest  and 
quickenest,  and  causest  salvation  to  spring  forth? 

Who  is  like  unto  thee,  Father  of  mercy,  who  in 
mercy  rememberest  thy  creatures  unto  life? 

Yea,  faithful  art  thou  to  quicken  the  dead.  Blessed 
art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead. 

Thou  art  holy,  and  thy  name  is  holy,  and  holy  be* 
ings  praise  thee  daily.     (Selah.) 

Now,  therefore,  O  Lord  our  God,  impose  thine  awe 
upon  all  thy  works,  and  thy  dread  upon  all  that  thou 
hast  created,  that  all  works  may  fear  thee  and  all 
creatures  prostrate  themselves  before  thee,  that  they 
may  all  form  a  single  band  to  do  thy  will  with  a  per- 
fect heart,  even  as  we  know,  O  Lord  our  God,  that 
dominion  is  thine,  strength  is  in  thy  hand,  and  might 
in  thy  right  hand,  and  that  thy  name  is  to  be  feared 
above  all  that  thou  hast  created.  * 

Give  then  glory,  O  Lord,  unto  thy  people,  praise  to 
them  that  fear  thee,  hope  to  them  that  seek  thee,  and 
free  speech  to  them  that  wait  for  thee,  joy  to  thy  land, 
gladness  to  thy  city,  a  flourishing  horn  unto  David  thy 
servant,  and  a  clear  shining  light  unto  the  son  of 
lesse.   thine  anointed,  speedily  in  our  days.

ness shall  be  wholly  consumed  like  smoke,  when  thou 
makest  tne  dominion  of  arrogance  to  pass  away  from 
the  earth. 

And  thou,  O  Lord,  shalt  reign,  thou  alone  over  all 
thy  works  on  Mount  Zion,  the  dwelling  place  of  thy 
glory,  and  in  Jerusalem,  thy  holy  city,  as  it  is  written 
in  thy  Holy  Words,  The  Lord  shall  reign  for  ever, 
thy  God,  O  Zion,  unto  all  generations.  Praise  ye  thei 
Lord.  I 

Holy  art  thou,  and  dreaded  is  thy  name,  and  there 
is  no  God  beside  thee,  as  it  is  written.  And  the  Lord/ 
of  hosts  is  exalted  in  judgment,  and  the  holy  God  is, 
sanctified  in  righteousness.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord! 
the  holy  King. 

Thou  hast  chosen  us  from  all  peoples,  thou  hast 
loved  us  and  taken  pleasure  in  us,  and  hast  exalted  us 
above  all  tongues ;  thou  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  com- 
mandments, and  brought  us  near  unto  thy  service,  O 
our  King,  and  hast  called  us  by  thy  great  and  holy- 
name. 

On  Sabbath  add  the  words  in  brackets. 

And  thou  hast  given  us  in  love,  O  Lord  our  God 
[this  Sabbath  day  for  holiness  and  rest,  and]  this  Day 
of  Atonement  for  pardon,  forgiveness,  and  atonement^ 
that  we  may  fin  love]  obtain  pardon  thereon  for  all 
our  iniquities ;  an  holy  convocation,  as  a  memorial  of 
the  departure  from  Egypt.

407        CONCLUSION  SERVICE  FOR  DAY  OF  ATONEMENT 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers!  May  our  re- 
membrance rise  and  come  and  be  accepted  before  thee, 
with  the  remembrance  of  our  fathers,  of  Messiah  the 
son  of  David  thy  servant,  of  Jerusalem  thy  holy  city, 
and  of  all  thy  people  the  house  of  Israel,  bringing  de- 
liverance and  well-being,  grace,  lovingkindness  and 
mercy,  hfe  and  peace  on  this  Day  of  Atonement 
Remember  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  thereon  for  our  well- 
being;  be  mindful  of  us  for  blessing,  and  save  us  unto 
Hfe:  by  thy  promise  of  salvation  and  mercy,  spare 
us  and  be  gracious  unto  us ;  have  mercy  upon  us  and 
save  us ;  for  our  eyes  are  bent  upon  thee,  because  thou 
art  a  gracious  and  merciful  God  and  King. 

Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  pardon  our  in- 
iquities [on  this  Sabbath  day,  and]  on  this  Day  of 
Atonement;  blot  out  our  transgressions  and  our  sins, 
and  make  them  pass  away  from  before  thine  eyes ;  as  it 
is  said,  I,  even  I,  am  he  that  blotteth  out  thy  trans- 
gressions for  mine  own  sake ;  and  I  will  not  remember 
thy  sins.  And  it  is  said,  I  have  blotted  out,  as  a  cloud, 
thy  transgressions,  and,  as  a  mist,  thy  sins:  return 
unto  me,  for  I  have  redeemed  thee.  And  it  is  said, 
For  on  this  day  shall  atonement  be  made  for  you,  to 
cleanse  you ;  from  all  your  sins  shall  ye  be  clean  before 
the  Lord.  [Our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers,  accept 
our  rest.]      Sanctify  us  by  thy  commandments,   and

pardoner  of  the  tribes  of  Jeshurun  in  every  genera-

and  forgiveth.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  thou  King 
who  pardonest  and  forgivest  our  iniquities  and  the 
iniquities  of  thy  people,  the  house  of  Israel,  who 
makest  our  trespasses  to  pass  away  year  by  year,  King 
over  all  the  earth,  who  sanctifiest  [the  Sabbath  and] 
Israel  and  the  day  of  Atonement. 

Accept,  O  Lord  our  God,  thy  people  Israel  and 
their  prayer;  restore  the  service  to  the  oracle  of  thy 
house ;  receive  in  love  and  favor  both  the  fire  offerings 
of  Israel  and  their  prayer;  and  may  the  service  of  thy 
people  Israel  be  ever  acceptable  unto  thee. 

And  let  our  eyes  behold  thy  return  in  mercy  to 
Zion.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  restorest  thy 
divine  presence  unto  Zion.

good  judgments,  and  it  hath  profited  us  nought.  But 
thou  art  righteous  in  all  that  is  come  upon  us ;  for  thou 
hast  acted  truthfully,  but  we  have  wrought  unright- 
eousness. 

What  shall  we  say  before  thee,  O  thou  who  dwell- 
est  on  high,  and  what  shall  we  recount  unto  thee,  thou 
who  abidest  in  the  heavens?  dost  thou  not  know  all 
things,  both  the  hidden  and  the  revealed? 

Thou  givest  a  hand  to  transgressors,  and  thy  right 
hand  is  stretched  out  to  receive  the  penitent ;  thou  hast 
taught  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  make  confession  unto 
thee  of  all  our  sins,  in  order  that  we  may  cease  from 
the  violence  of  our  hands,  that  thou  mayest  receive 
us  into  thy  presence  in  perfect  repentance,  even  as  fire 
offerings  and  sweet  savors,  for  thy  words'  sake  which 
thou  hast  spoken.  Endless  would  be  the  fire  offerings 
required  for  our  guilt,  and  numberless  the  sweet  savors 
for  our  trespasses:  but  thou  knowest  that  our  latteii

life?  What  is  our  piety?  What  our  righteousness! 
What  our  helpfulness?  What  our  strength?  Wha^ 
our  might?  What  shall  we  say  before  thee,  O  Lord 
our  God  and  God  of  our  fathers?  Are  not  all  the 
mighty  men  as  nought  before  thee,  the  men  of  renown 
as  though  they  had  not  been,  the  wise  as  if  without 
knowledge,  and  the  men  of  understanding  as  if  with- 
out discernment?  For  most  of  their  works  are  void, 
and  the  days  of  their  lives  are  vanity  before  thee,  and 
the  pre-eminence  of  man  over  the  beast  is  nought,  for 
all  is  vanity. 

Thou  hast  distinguished  man  from  the  beginning', 
and  hast  recognized  his  privilege  that  he  might  stand 
before  thee;  for  who  shall  say  unto  thee,  What  doest 
thou?  and  if  he  be  righteous  what  can  he  give  thee? 
But  thou  of  thy  love  hast  given  us,  O  Lord  our  God 
[this  Sabbath  day  and]  this  Day  of  Atonement  to  be 
the  end  of,  as  well  as  the  season  of  pardon  and  for- 
giveness for,  all  our  iniquities,  that  we  may  cease 
from  the  violence  of  our  hands,  and  may  return  unto 
thee  to  do  the  statutes  of  thy  will  with  a  perfect  heart 
O  do  thou,  in  thy  abounding  compassion,  have  mercy 
upon  us,  for  thou  delightest  not  in  the  destruction  of 
the  world,  as  it  is  said,  Seek  ye  the  Lord,  while  he 
may  be  found,  call  ye  upon  him  while  he  is  near.  And 
it  is  said.  Let  the  wicked  forsake  his  way,  and  the  man 
of  iniquity  his  thoughts;  and  let  him  return  unto  the' 
Lord,  and  he  will  have  mercy  upon  him;  and  to  our 
God  for  he  will  abundantly  pardon.  But  thou  art  a 
God   ready   to   forgive,   gracious   and   merciful,   slow

to  anger,  plenteous  in  lovingkindness,  and  abounding 
in  goodness;  thou  delightest  in  the  repentance  of  the 
wicked,  and  hast  no  pleasure  in  their  death ;  as  it  is 
said,  Say  unto  them,  As  I  live,  saith  the  Lord  God, 
I  have  no  pleasure  in  the  death  of  the  wicked;  but 
that  the  wicked  turn  from  his  way  and  live :  turn  ye, 
turn  ye  from  your  evil  ways;  for  why  will  ye  die,  O 
house  of  Israel?  And  it  is  said,  Have  I  at  all  any 
pleasure  in  the  death  of  the  wicked,  saith  the  Lord 
God,  and  not  rather  that  he  should  return  from  his 
way,  and  live?  And  it  is  said.  For  I  have  no  pleas- 
ure in  the  death  of  him  that  dieth,  saith  the  Lord  God ; 
wherefore  turn  yourselves  and  live.  For  thou  art  the 
pardoner  of  Israel  and  the  forgiver  of  the  tribes  of 
Jeshurun  in  every  generation,  and  beside  thee  we  have 
no  King  who  pardoneth  and  forgiveth. 

O  my  God,  before  I  was  formed  I  was  nothing 
worth,  and  now  that  I  have  been  formed  I  am  but  as 
though  I  had  not  been  formed.  Dust  am  I  in  my  life : 
how  much  more  so  in  my  death.  Behold  I  am  before 
thee  like  a  vessel  filled  with  shame  and  confusion.  O 
may  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of  my 
fathers,  that  I  may  sin  no  more,  and  as  to  the  sins 
I  have  committed,  purge  them  away  in  thine  abounding 
compassion  though  not  by  means  of  affliction  and  sore 
diseases. 

O  my  God !  guard  my  tongue  from  evil  and  my  lips 
from  speaking  guile;  and  to  such  as  curse  me  let  my 
soul  be  dumb,  yea,  let  my  soul  be  unto  all  as  the  dust»

universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  command- 
ments, and  commanded  us  to  kindle  the  light  of 
Chanukah. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni-

days  of  old,  at  this  season.

We  kindle  these  lights  on  account  of  the  miracles, 
the  deliverances  and  the  wonders  which  thou  didst 
work  for  our  fathers,  by  means  of  thy  holy  priests. 
During  all  the  eight  days  of  Chanukah  these  lights 
are  sacred,  neither  is  it  permitted  us  to  make  any 
profane  use  of  them ;  but  we  are  only  to  look  at  them,

thy  miracles,  thy  deliverances  and  thy  wonders.

421  SERVICE  FOR  CHANUKAH 

In  the  home  the  following  Hymn  is  chanted. 

O  Fortress,  Rock  of  my  salvation,  unto  thee  it  is 
becoming  to  give  praise :  let  my  house  of  prayer  be 
restored,  and  I  will  there  offer  thee  thanksgivings ; 
when  thou  shalt  have  prepared  a  slaughter  of  the 
blaspheming  foe,  I  will  complete  with  song  and  psalm 
the  dedication  of  the  altar. 

Full  sated  was  my  soul  with  ills,  my  strength  was 
spent  with  sorrow;  they  embittered  my  life  by  hard- 
ship during  my  subjection  to  the  dominion  of  Egypt,* 
but  God  with  his  great  power  brought  forth  the  chosen 
race,  while  the  host  of  Pharaoh  and  all  his  seed  sank 
like  a  stone  into  the  deep. 

To  his  holy  oracle  he  brought  me,  yet  there  also  I 
found  no  peace,  for  the  oppressor  came  and  led  me 
captive,  because  I  had  served  strange  gods :  I  had  to 
quaff  the  wine  of  bewilderment ;  well  nigh  had  I 
perished,  when  Babylon's  end  drew  near;  through 
Zerubbabel  I  was  saved  after  seventy  years.  _ 

The  Agagite  (Haman),  the  son  of  Hammedatha,  f 
sought  tc  cut  down  the  lofty  fir  tree  (Mordecai)f ; 
but  his  design  became  a  snare  to  himself,  and  his 
pride  was  brought  to  an  end.  The  head  of  the  Ben-  j 
jamite  thou  didst  exalt,  but  the  enemy's  name  thou 
didst  blot  out :  the  many  sons  he  had  gotten  thou  didst 
hang  upon  the  gallows. 

The  Grecians  were  gathered  against  me  in  the  days 
of  the  Hasmoneans ;  they  broke  down  the  walls  of 
my  towers,  and  defiled  all  the  oils;  but  from  one  of 
the  last  remaining  flasks  a  miracle  was  wrous^ht  for 
thy  belovedj,  and  their  men  of  understanding  ap- 
:pointed  these  eight  days  for  song  and  praises.

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  th€ 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  command- 
ments, and  hast  given  us  command  concerning  the 
reading  of   the   Megillah. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni-

us,  and  enabled  us  to  reach  this  season. 

After  reading  the  Book  of  Esther  say  \— 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  dost  plead  our  cause,  judge  our  sui<: 
and  avenge  our  wrong,  who  renderest  retribulion  t(^

Lord,  who  on  behalf  of  thy  people  Israel  dealest  out

The  following  paragraph   is   omitted   after   the   Reading 
of  the  Book   of  Esther  in   the   morning: — 

^Who  ])rofightest  the  counsel  of  the  heathen  tc  nought,  and 
madest  the  devices  of  the  crafty  of  none  effect,  when  a  wicked 
man,  an  arrogant  offshoot  of  the  seed  of  Amalek,  rose  up 
against  us.  Insolent  in  his  riches,  he  digged  himself  a  pit,  and 
his  own  greatness  laid  him  a  snare.  In  his  mind  he  thought 
to  entrap,  but  was  himself  entrapped,  he  sough"  to  destroy,  but 
was  speedily  destroyed.  Haman  displayed  the  hatred  of  his 
fathers,  and  stirred  up  against  the  children  the  ancient  enmity 
of  the  brothers  (Esau  and  Jacob),  remembering  not  the 
mercv  of  Saul,  through  whose  compassion  for  Agag  the  enemy 
was  bom.  The  wicked  plotted  to  cut  off  the  just,  and  the 
unclean  was  caught  in  the  hands  of  the  pure.    (Mordecai's)

lovingklndness  (to  Esther)  prevailed  over  the  father's 
(Saul's)  error,  but  the  wicked  (Haman)  heaped  sin  upon 
the  sins  of  his  ancestor.  In  his  heart  he  hid  his  cunning 
devices,  and  sold  himself  to  do  wickedness.  He  stretched 
forth  his  hand  against  God's  saints;  he  gave  his  silver  to 
cut  off  the  remembrance  of  them.  When  Mordecai  saw  that 
wrath  had  gone  forth,  and  that  the  decrees  of  Haman  were 
issued  in  Shushan,  he  put  on  sackcloth  and  wrapped  himself 
in  mourning,  ordained  a  fast  and  sat  upon  ashes.  Who  will 
rise  up  to  atone  for  error,  and  obtain  pardon  for  the  sin 
and  iniquity  of  our  fathers?  A  flower  blossomed  from  the 
palm  tree:  lo !  Hadassah  arose  to  awaken  the  merit  of  those 
that  slept  in  the  grave.  Her  servants  hastened  to  make  Haman 
drink  the  wine  of  the  poison  of  snakes.  He  rose  by  his 
riches,  but  fell  in  his  wickedness;  he  made  him  a  gallows, 
and  was  himself  hanged  thereon.  All  the  inhabitants  of  the 
world  opened  their  mouths,  for  the  lot  of  Haman  was  turned 
to  be  our  lot.  When  the  righteous  was  delivered  out  of  the 
hand  of  the  wicked,  and  the  enemy  was  put  in  his  stead, 
the  Jews  ordained  for  themselves  to  celebrate  Purim,  and 
to  rejoice  thereon  every  year.  Thou  didst  regard  the  prayer 
of  Mordecai  and  Esther:  Haman  and  his  sons  thou  didst 
hang  upon  the  gallows. 

The  lily  of  Jacob  rejoiced  and  was  glad  when  Mordecai 
was  seen  in  the  purple.  Thou  hast  ever  been  Israel's  salva- 
tion, and  their  hope  in  every  generation,  to  make  known 
that  all  who  hope  in  thee  shall  not  be  ashamed,  neither  shall 
any  be  confounded  who  put  their  trust  in  thee.  Accursed  be 
Haman  who  sought  to  destroy  me;  blessed  be  Mordecai  the 
Jew;  accursed  be  Zeresh,  the  wife  of  him  that  terrified  me; 
blessed  be  Esther  my  protectress,  and  may  Harbonah  also  be 
remembered  for  good.

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  command- 
ments, and  hast  given  us  command  concerning  the 
washing  of  the  hands. 

The  following  Blessing  is  said  over  the  Bread: — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  uni*-

Grace  After  Meals 

On  Sabbaths  and  Holy  days,  and  on  those  days  when  Tachanun 
is  not  said,  Psalm  cxxvi.  is  said' — 

Psalm  cxxvi. 

A  Song  of  Degrees. — When  the  Lord  turned  again 

the  captivity  of  Zion,  we  were  like  unto  them  that 

dream.    Then  was  our  mouth  filled  with  laughter,  and 

our  tongue  with  exultation :  then  said  they  among  the 

nations,  The  Lord  hath  done  great  things  for  them. 

The  Lord  hath  done  great  things  for  us ;  whereat  we 

rejoiced.     Bring  back  our  captivity,  O  Lord,  as  the 

streams  in  the  south.    They  that  sow  in  tears  shall  reap 

in  joy.    Though  he  goeth  on  his  way  weeping,  bearing 

the  store  of  seed,  he  shall  come  back  with  joy,  bear- 

ins:  his  sheaves.

Have  mercy,  O  Lord  our  God,  upon  Israel  thy  peo- 
ple, upon  Jerusalem  thy  city,  upon  Zion  the  abiding 
place  of  thy  glory,  upon  the  kingdom  of  the  house 
of  David  thine  anointed,  and  upon  the  great  and  holy 
house  that  was  called  by  thy  name.  O  our  God,  our 
Father,  feed  us,  nourish  us,  sustain,  support  and  re- 
lieve us,  and  speedily  O  Lord  our  God,  grant  us  relief 
from  all  our  troubles.  We  beseech  thee,  O  Lord  our 
God,  let  us  not  be  in  need  either  of  the  gifts  of  flesh 
and  blood  or  of  their  loans,  but  only  of  thy  helping

may  not  be  ashamed  nor  confounded  for  ever  and 
ever.

Be  pleased,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  fortify  us  by  thy 
commandments,  and  especially  by  the  commandment 
of  the  seventh  day,  this  great  and  holy  Sabbath,  since 
this  day  is  great  and  holy  before  thee,  that  we  may 
rest  and  repose  thereon  in  love  in  accordance  with  the 
precept  of  thy  will.  In  thy  favor,  O  Lord  our  God, 
grant  us  such  repose  that  there  be  no  trouble,  grief 
or  lamenting  on  the  day  of  our  rest.  Let  us,  O  Lord

the  Lord  of  salvation  and  of  consolation.

On  Week-days: — 

Great  salvation  giveth  he  to  his  king.* 

On  Sabbaths,  Festivals,  and  New  Moons  i" 

He  is  a  tower  of  salvation  to  his  king;* 

And  showeth  lovingkindness  to  his  anointed,  to 
David  and  to  his  seed,  for  evermore.  He  who  maketh 
peace  in  his  high  places,  may  he  make  peace  for  us 
Bnd  for  all  Israel,  and  say  ye.  Amen. 

O  fear  the  Lord,  ye  his  holy  ones;  for  there  is  no 
want  to  them  that  fear  him.  Young  lions  do  lack 
and  suffer  hunger:  but  they  that  seek  the  Lord  shall 
not  want  any  good.  O  give  thanks  unto  the  Lord,  for 
he  is  good:  for  his  lovingkindness  endureth  for  ever. 
Thou  openest  thine  hand,  and  satisfiest  every  living 
thing  with  favor.  Blessed  is  the  man  that  trusteth 
in  the  Lord,  and  whose  trust  the  T.ord  is.  I  have 
been  young  and  now  I  am  old ;  yet  have  I  not  seen, 
the  righteous  forsaken,  nor  his  seed  begging  for 
bread.  The  Lord  will  give  strength  unto  his  people; 
the  Lord  will  bless  his  people  with  peace. 


•  These  changes  are  based  upon  the  two  readings  of  this

PRAYERS  BEFORE  RETIRING  TO  REST 
AT  NIGHT 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  tht 
universe,  who  makest  the  bands  of  sleep  to  fall  upon 
mine  eyes,  and  slumber  upon  mine  eyelids.  May  it 
be  thy  will,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of  my  fathers, 
to  suffer  me  to  lie  down  in  peace  and  to  let  me  rise 
up  again  in  peace.  Let  not  my  thoughts  trouble  me, 
nor  evil  dreams,  nor  evil  fancies,  but  let  my  rest  be 
perfect  before  thee.  O  lighten  mine  eyes,  lest  I  sleep 
the  sleep  of  death,  for  it  is  thou  who  givest  light  to 
the  apple  of  the  eye.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who 
givest  light  to  the  whole  world  in  thy  glory. 

God,  faithful  King. 

Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord  is  One. 

Blessed  be  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom  is 
for  ever  and  ever. 

And  thou  shalt  love  the  Lord  thy  God  with  ai 
thine  heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul,  and  with  all  thy 
might.  And  these  words,  which  I  command  thee  this 
day,  shall  be  upon  thine  heart:  and  thou  shalt  teach 
them  diligently  unto  thy  children,  and  shalt  talk  of 
them  when  thou  sittest  in  thine  house,  and  when  thou 
walkest  by  the  way,  and  when  thou  liest  down,  and 
when  thou  risest  up.  And  thou  shalt  bind  them  for  a 
sign  upon  thine  hand,  and  they  shall  be  for  frontlets 
between  thine  eyes.  And  thou  shalt  write  them  upon 
\he  door-posts  of  thy  house,  and  upon  thy  gates.

439  PRAYERS  BEFORE  RETIRING  TO  REST  AT  NIGHT 

And  let  the  pleasantness  of  the  Lord  our  God  be 
upon  us :  and  establish  thou  the  work  of  our  hands 
upon  us ;  yea,  the  work  of  our  hands  establish  thou  it 
Psalm  xci. 

He  that  dwelleth  in  the  shelter  of  the  Most  High, 
abideth  under  the  shadow  of  the  Almighty.  I  say  of 
the  Lord,  He  is  my  refuge  and  my  fortress ;  my  God, 
in  whom  I  trust. — For  he  shall  deliver  thee  from  the 
snare  of  the  fowler,  and  from  the  noisome  pestilence. 
He  shall  cover  thee  with  his  pinions,  and  under  his 
wings  shalt  thou  take  refuge:  his  truth  shall  be  a 
shield  and  a  buckler.  Thou  shalt  not  be  afraid  of  the 
terror  by  night,  nor  of  the  arrow  that  flieth  by  day; 
of  the  pestilence  that  walketh  in  darkness,  nor  of  the 
plague  that  ravageth  at  noon  day.  A  thousand  may 
^all  at  thy  side,  and  ten  thousand  at  thy  right  hand ;  it 
jhall  not  come  nigh  unto  thee.  Only  with  thine  eyes 
shalt  thou  look  on,  and  see  the  retribution  of  the 
wicked. — For  thou,  O  Lord,  art  my  refuge. — Thou 
hast  made  the  Most  High  thy  dwelling  place ;  there 
shall  no  evil  befall  thee,  neither  shall  any  scourge 
come  nigh  thy  tent.  For  he  shall  give  his  angels 
charge  over  thee,  to  keep  thee  in  all  thy  ways.  They 
shall  bear  thee  upon  their  hands,  lest  thou  strike  thy 
foot  against  a  stone.  Thou  shalt  tread  upon  the  lion 
and  the  adder :  upon  the  young  lion  and  the  serpent 
shalt  thou  trample. — Because  he  hath  set  his  love  upon 
me,  therefore  will  I  deliver  him :  I  will  set  him  on  high, 
because  he  knoweth  my  name.  When  he  calleth  upon 
me  I  will  answer  him ;  I  will  be  with  him  in  trouble : 
I  will  deliver  him  and  honor  him.  With  length  of 
days  will  I  satisfy  him,  and  will  let  him  see  my  sal- 
vation. Repeat  the  last  I'crse. 
Psalm  iii. 

Lord,  how  are  mine  adversaries  increased!     Many 
are  they  that  rise  up  against  me.  Many  there  are  which

say  of  my  soul,  There  is  no  salvation  for  him  in  God. 
(Selah.)  But  thou,  O  Lord,  art  a  shield  about  me; 
my  glory  and  the  lifter  up  of  mine  head.  I  cry  unto 
the  Lord  with  my  voice,  and  he  answereth  me  from 
his  holy  mountain.  (Selah.)  I  laid  me  down  and 
slept;  I  have  awaked,  for  the  Lord  sustaineth  me.  I 
will  not  be  afraid  of  the  ten  thousands  of  people,  that 
have  set  themselves  against  me  round  about.  Arise, 
O  Lord;  save  me,  O  my  God:  for  thou  hast  smitten 
all  mine  enemies  upon  the  cheek  bone;  thou  hast  bro- 
ken the  teeth  of  the  wicked.  Salvation  belongeth  unto 
the  Lord :  thy  blessing  be  upon  thy  people.    (Selah.) 

Cause  us,  O  Lord  our  God,  to  lie  down  in  peace,  and 
raise  us  up,  O  our  King,  unto  life.  Spread  over  us 
the  tabernacle  of  thy  peace;  direct  us  aright  through 
thine  own  good  counsel ;  save  us  for  thy  name's  sake ; 
be  thou  a  shield  about  us;  remove  from  us  every 
enemy,  pestilence,  sword,  famine  and  sorrow ;  remove 
also  the  adversary  from  before  us  and  from  behind 
us.  O  shelter  us  beneath  the  shadow  of  thy  wings; 
for  thou,  O  God,  art  our  Guardian  and  our  Deliverer ; 
yea,  thou,  O  God,  art  a  gracious  and  merciful  King; 
and  guard  our  going  out  and  our  coming  in  unto  life 
and  unto  peace  from  this  time  forth  and  for  evermore. 

Blessed  be  the  Lord  by  day;  blessed  be  the  Lord 
by  night;  blessed  be  the  Lord  when  we  He  down; 
blessed  be  the  Lord  when  we  rise  up.  For  in  thy 
hand  are  the  souls  of  the  living  and  the  dead,  as  it  is, 
said.  In  his  hand  is  the  soul  of  every  living  thing,  and 
the  spirit  of  all  human  flesh.  Into  thy  hand  I  com.- 
mend  my  spirit ;  thou  hast  redeemed  me,  O  Lord,  God 
of  truth.  Our  God  who  art  in  heaven,  assert  the  unity 
of  thy  name,  and  establish  thy  kingdom  continually, 
and  reign  over  us  for  ever  and  ever.

May  our  eyes  behold,  our  hearts  rejoice,  and  our 
•souls  be  glad  in  thy  true  salvation,  when  it  shall  be 
said  unto  Zion,  Thy  God  reigneth.  The  Lord  reign- 
eth;  the  Lord  hath  reigned;  the  Lord  shall  reign  for 
■ever  and  ever:  for  the  kingdom  is  thine,  and  to  ever- 
lasting thou  wilt  reign  in  glory;  for  we  have  no  king 
but  thee. 

The  angel  who  hath  redeemed  me  from  all  evil 
bless  the  lads ;  and  let  my  name  be  named  on  them, 
and  the  name  of  my  fathers  Abraham  and  Isaac ;  and 
let  them  grow  into  a  multitude  in  the  midst  of  the 
earth. — And  he  said.  If  thou  wilt  diligently  hearken 
to  the  voice  of  the  Lord  thy  God,  and  wilt  do  that 
which  is  right  in  his  eyes,  and  wilt  give  ear  to  his 
commandments,  and  keep  all  his  statutes,  I  will  put 
none  of  the  diseases  upon  thee,  which  I  have  put  upon 
the  Egyptians ;  for  I  am  the  Lord  that  healeth  thee. — ■ 
And  the  Lord  said  unto  the  adversary.  The  Lord 
rebuke  thee,  O  adversary;  yea,  the  Lord  that  hath 
chosen  Jerusalem  rebuke  thee.  Is  not  this  a  brand 
plucked  out  of  the  fire? — Behold  the  bed  of  Solomon: 
threescore  mighty  men  are  about  it,  of  the  mighty  men 
of  Israel:  they  all  handle  the  sword,  expert  in  war: 
every  man  hath  his  sword  upon  his  thigh,  because  of 
fear  in  the  night. — The  Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee: 
the  Lord  make  his  face  to  shine  upon  thee,  and  be 
gracious  unto  thee:  the  Lord  turn  his  face  unto  thee, 
and  give  thee  peace. 

To  he  said  three  times'. — 

Behold,  he  that  guardeth  Israel  will  neither  slum- 
ber nor  sleep. 

To  he  said  three  times : — 

For  thy  salvation  I  hope,  O  Lord.  I  hope,  O  I.ord, 
for  thy  salvation.     O  Lord,  for  thy  salvation  I  hope.

To  he  said  three  times: — 

In  the  name  of  the  Lord,  the  God  of  Israel,  may 
Michael  be   at  my   right  hand ;   Gabriel  at  my  left ; 
before  me,  Uriel;  behind  me,  Raphael;  and  above  my 
head  the  divine  presence  of  God. 
Psalm   cxxviii. 

A  Song  of  Degrees. — Happy  is  every  one  that  fear- 
eth  the  Lord,  that  walketh  in  his  ways.  When  thou 
ghalt  eat  the  labor  of  thine  hands,  happy  shalt  thou 
be,  and  it  shall  be  well  with  thee.  Thy  wife  shall  be 
as  a  fruitful  vine,  in  the  recesses  of  thine  house:  thy 
children  like  olive  plants,  round  about  thy  table.  Be- 
hold thus  shall  the  man  be  blessed  that  feareth  the 
Lord.  May  the  Lord  bless  thee  out  of  Zion :  mayest 
thou  see  the  good  of  Jerusalem  all  the  days  of  thy 
life.  Yea,  mayest  thou  see  thy  children's  children. 
Peace  be  upon  Israel. 

To  he  said  tJwee  times: — 

Stand  m  awe,  and  sin  not :  commune  with  your  own 
heart  upon  your  bed,  and  be  still.     (Selah.) 


He  is  Lord  of  the  universe,  who  reigned  ere  any  creature 
tet  was  formed : 

At  the  time  when  all  things  were  made  by  his  desire,  then 
tvas  his  name  proclaimed  King. 

And  after  all  things  shall  have  had  an  end,  he  alone,  the 
dreaded  one,  shall  reign; 

Who  was,  who  is,  and  who  will  be  in  glory. 

And  he  is  One,  and  there  is  no  second  to  compare  to  him, 
to  consort  with  him: 

Without  beginning,  without  end;  to  him  belong  strength 
and  dominion. 

And  he  is  my  God— my  Redeemer  liveth— and  a  rock  in 
my  travail  in  time  of  distress ; 

And  he  is  my  banner  and  my  refuge,  the  portion  of  my 
cup  on  the  day  when  I  call. 

Into  his  hand  I  commend  my  spirit,  when  I  sleep  and  when 
I  wake; 

And  with  my  spirit,  my  body  also:  the  Lord  is  with  me^ 
and  I  will  not  fear.

PRAYER  OR  ADDRESS 


Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  createst  the  fruit  of  the  vine. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments, 
and  hast  given  us  command  concerning  forbidden 
marriages ;  who  hast  disallowed  unto  us  those  that  are 
betrothed,  but  hast  sanctioned  unto  us  such  as  are 
wedded  to  us  by  the  rite  of  the  canopy  and  the  sacred 
covenant  of  wedlock.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who 
sanctifiest  thy  people  Israel  by  the  rite  of  the  canopy 
and  the  sacred  covenant  of  wedlock. 

The  Bridegroom  places  the  ring  upon  the  forefinger  of  the

The  Hebrew  Marriage   Contract  is  read  by   the   Celebrant, 

after  which  the  following  Seven  Benedictions  are  said : — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  Greatest  the  fruit  of  the  vine. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  created  all  things  to  thy  glory. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe.  Creator  of  man. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  made  man  in  thine  image,  after 
thy  likeness,  and  hast  prepared  unto  him,  out  of  his 
very  self,  a  perpetual  fabric.  Blessed  art  thou,  O 
Lord,  Creator  of  man. 

May  she  who  was  barren  (Zion)  be  exceeding  glad 
and  exult,  when  her  children  are  gathered  within  her 
in  joy.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who  makest  Zion 
joyful  through  her  children. 

O  make  these  loved  companions  greatly  to  rejoice, 
even  as  of  old  thou  didst  gladden  thy  creature  in  the 
garden  of  Eden.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord,  who 
makest  bridegroom  and  bride  to  rejoice. 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  created  joy  and  gladness,  bride- 
groom and  bride,  mirth  and  exultation,  pleasure  and 
delight,  love,  brotherhood,  peace  and  fellowship.  Soon 
may  there  be  heard  in  the  cities  of  Judah,  and  in  the 
streets  of  Jerusalem,  the  voice  of  joy  and  gladness, 
the  voice  of  the  bridegroom  and  the  voice  of  the  bride, 
the  jubilant  voice  of  bridegrooms  from  their  canopies, 
and  of  youths  from  their  feasts  of  song.  Blessed  art 
thou,  O  Lord,  who  makest  the  bridegroom  to  rejoice 
with  the  bride.

GRACE  AFTER  THE  WEDDING  FEAST 

He  who  says  Grace  commences  thus : — 
Banish,  O  Lord,  both  grief  and  wrath,  and  then  the 

dumb  shall  exult  in  song.     Guide  us  in  the  paths  of 

righteousness.     Regard   the   blessing  of   the   children 

of  Jeshurun. 

With  the  sanction  of  those  present  we  will  bless 

our  God,  in  whose  abode  is  joy,  and  of  whose  bounty 

we  have  partaken. 

The  others  respond  : — 

Blessed  be  our  God  in  whose  abode  is  joy,  and  of 
whose  bounty  we  have  partaken,  and  through  whose 
goodness  we  live. 

He  who  says  Grace  repeats  the  last  sentence,  and  continues

I  will  sing  of  lovingkindness  and  justice:  unto  thee, 

0  Lord,  will  I  sing  praises.  I  will  give  heed  to  the 
way  of  integrity:  O  when  wilt  thou  come  unto  me? 

1  will  walk  within  my  house  in  the  integrity  of  my 
heart.  I  will  set  no  base  thing  before  mine  eyes :  I 
hate  licentious  deeds ;  they  shall  not  cleave  unto  me>, 
A  iroward  heart  shall  depart  from  me:  I  will  know  no 
evil  thing.  Whoso  secretly  slandereth  his  neighbor, 
him  will  I  destroy:  him  that  hath  an  high  look  and  a 
proud  heart  will  I  not  suffer.  Mine  eyes  shall  be 
upon  the  faithful  of  the  land,  that  they  may  dwell 
with  me :  he  that  walketh  in  the  way  of  integrity,  he 
shall  minister  unto  me.  He  that  worketh  deceit  shall 
not  dwell  within  my  house :  he  that  speaketh  falsehood 
shall  not  abide  before  mine  eyes.  Morning  by  morning 
will  I  destroy  all  the  wicked  of  the  land:  to  cut  off 
all  the  workers  of  iniquity  from  the  city  of  the  Lord.

Wherewith  shall  a  young  man  keep  his  way  pure  ?  By 
taking  heed  thereto  according  to  thy  word.  With  my 
whole  heart  have  I  sought  thee:  O  let  me  not  wander 
from  thy  commandments.  Thy  word  have  I  treasured 
up  within  mine  heart,  that  I  might  not  sin  against 
thee.  Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord :  teach  me  thy  statutes. 
With  my  lips  have  I  declared  all  the  judgments  of  thy 
mouth.  I  have  rejoiced  in  the  way  of  thy  testimonies, 
as  much  as  in  all  riches.  I  will  meditate  on  thy  pre- 
cepts, and  look  towards  thy  paths.  I  will  delight  my- 
self in  thy  statutes :  I  will  not  forget  thy  word.

is  far  from  the  wicked ;  for  they  seek  not  thy  statutes. 
Great  are  thy  tender  mercies,  O  Lord:  quicken  me 
according  to  thy  judgments.  Many  are  my  persecu- 
tors and  mine  adversaries ;  yet  have  I  not  swerved 
from  thy  testimonies.  I  beheld  the  treacherous  deal- 
ers, and  loathed  them ;  because  they  observed  not  thy 
word.  See  how  I  love  thy  precepts:  quicken  me,  O 
Lord,  according  to  thy  lovingkindness.  The  sum  of 
thy  word  is  truth:  and  every  one  of  thy  righteous 
judgments  endureth  for  ever. 
Caph. 

My  soul  pineth  for  thy  salvation:  I  hope  for  thy 
word.  Mine  eyes  pine  for  thy  promise,  while  I  say, 
When  wilt  thou  comfort  me?  For  I  am  become  like 
a  wineskin  in  the  smoke ;  yet  do  I  not  forget  thy 
statutes.  How  many  are  the  days  of  thy  servant? 
When  wilt  thou  execute  judgment  on  them  that  per- 
secute me?  The  proud  have  digged  pits  for  me,  they 
who  are  not  after  thy  Law.  All  thy  commandments 
are  faithfulness :  they  persecute  me  with  falsehood ; 
help  thou  me.  They  have  almost  made  an  end  of  me 
on  earth  ;  but  I  forsake  not  thy  precepts.  Quicken 
me  according  to  thy  lovingkindness ;  so  shall  I  observe 
the  testimony  of  thy  mouth. 

He. 

Teach  me,  O  Lord,  the  way  of  thy  statutes ;  and  I 
will  keep  it  unto  the  end.  Give  me  understanding, 
and  I  will  keep  thy  Law ;  yea,  I  will  observe  it  with 
my  whole  heart.  Make  me  to  tread  the  path  of  thy 
commandments ;  for  therein  do  I  delight.  Incline  my 
heart  unto  thy  testimonies,  and  not  to  covetousness. 
Turn  away  mine  eyes  from  looking  at  vanity,  and 
quicken  me  in  thy  way.  Confirm  thy  word  unto  thy 
servant,  which  leadeth  unto  the  fear  of  thee.  Turn 
away  my  reproach  whereof  I  am  afraid ;  for  thy 
judgments  are  good.  Behold,  I  long  after  thy  pre-  I 
cepts ;  quicken  me  in  ^hv  rigfhteousness.

Sovereign  of  the  universe!  Look  down  from  thy 
holy  habitation,  and  in  mercy  and  favor  accept  the 
prayer  and  suppHcation  of  thy  children,  who  are  as- 
sembled here  to  consecrate  this  dwelling,  and  to  offer 
their  thanksgiving  unto  thee  for  all  the  lovingkindness 
and  truth  thou  hast  shown  unto  them.  We  beseech 
thee,  let  not  thy  lovingkindness  depart,  nor  the  cov- 
enant of  thy  peace  be  removed  from  them.  Shield  this 
their  abode  that  no  evil  befall  it.  May  sickness  and 
sorrow  not  come  nigh  unto  it,  nor  the  voice  of  lamen- 
tation be  heard  within  its  walls.  Grant  that  the  mem- 
bers of  the  household  may  dwell  together  in  this  their 
habitation  in  brotherhood  and  fellowship,  that  they 
may  love  and  fear  thee,  and  cleave  unto  thee,  and 
may  meditate  in  thy  Law,  and  be  faithful  to  its  pre- 
cepts. 

Vouchsafe  thy  blessings  unto  the  master  of  this 
house.  Bless,  O  Lord,  his  substance,  and  accept  the 
work  of  his  hands.  Keep  him  far  from  sin  and  trans- 
gression. Let  thy  grace  be  upon  him,  and  establish 
thou  the  work  of  his  hands.  May  thy  lovingkindness 
be  with  her  who  looketh  well  to  the  ways  of  her 
household,  and  may  she  be  mindful  that  the  woman 
who  feareth  the  Lord,  she  shall  be  praised.  Bestow 
upon  their  sons  and  daughters  the  spirit  of  wisdom 
and  understanding.  Lead  them  in  the  path  of  thy 
commandments,  so  that  all  who  see  them  may  acknowl- 
edge that  they  are  an  offspring  blessed  of  the  Lord, 
blessed  with  a  knowledge  of  thy  Law  and  with  the 
fear  of  thee.  Preserve  them  from  all  evil;  preserve 
their  lives.  May  thy  gracious  promise  be  realized  in 
them,  Blessed  shalt  thou  be  when  thou  comest  in, 
blessed  when  thou  goest  out.  And  even  a?  we  have 
been  permitted  to  consecrate  this  house,  so  grant  that 
we  may  together  witness  the  dedication  of  thy  great 
and  holy  temple  in  Jerusalem,  the  city  of  our  solemni- 
ties, speedily  in  our  days.     Amen.

SERVICE   AT   A   CIRCUMCySTOTsT 

Upon  the  arrival  of  the  Child  who  is  to  be  initiated  into  the 

Covenant  of  Abraham,  those   present  at  the   Ceremony  rise 

and  say: — 

Blessed  be  he  that  cometh. 

The  Father  of  the  Child  says : — 

I  am  here  ready  to  perform  the  affirmative  precept 
to  circumcise  my  son,  even  as  the  Creator,  blessed  be 
he,  hath  commanded  us,  as  it  is  written  in  the  Law, 
And  he  that  is  eight  days  old  shall  be  circumcised 
among  you,  every  male  throughout  your  generations. 
The  Mohel  takes  the  child,  and,  placing  it  upon  a  seat,  says : — 

This  is  the  throne  of  Elijah: — may  he  be  remem- 
bered  for  good ! 

For  thy  salvation  I  have  waited,  O  Lord.  I  have 
hoped,  O  Lord,  for  thy  salvation ;  and  have  done  thy 
commandments.  I  have  hoped  for  thy  salvation,  O 
Lord.  I  rejoice  at  thy  word,  as  one  that  findeth  great 
spoil.  Great  peace  have  they  who  love  thy  Law ;  and 
there  is  no  stumbling  for  them.  Happy  is  he  whom  | 
thou  choosest,  and  causest  to  approach  that  he  may 
dwell  in  thy  courts. 

Those  present  respond: — 

O  let  us  be  satisfied  with  the  goodness  of  thy  house, 
thy   holy  temple. 

The  Mohel  places  the  Child  upon  the  knees  of  the  Godfather, 

and  before  performing  the   Circumcision  says   the  following 

Blessing : — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  command- 
ments, and  hast  given  us  command  concerning  the 
Circumcision. 

Immediately  after  the  Circumcision   the  Father  says  the  fol- 
lowing  Blessing: — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God.  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  command- 
ments, and  hast  commanded  us  to  make  our  sons  enter 
into  the  covenant  of  Abraham  our  father.

The  Mohel  continues : — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  universe,

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  universe, 
who  from  the  womb  didst  sanctify  Isaac  the  well-beloved, 
didst  set  thy  statute  in  his  flesh,  and  seal  his  offspring  with 
the  sign  of  the  holy  covenant.  On  this  account,  O  living  God, 
Dur  Portion  and  our  Rock,  give  command  to  deliver  from 
destruction  the  dearly  beloved  of  our  flesh,  for  the  sake  of

O  Lord,  who  makest  the  covenant.

his  father  and  to  his  mother,  and  let  his  name  be  called  in 

Israel the  son  of — — .     Let  the  father  rejoice  in  him  that

unto  thee,  In  thy  blood  live.  And  it  is  said,  He  hath  remem- 
bered his  covenant  for  ever,  the  word  which  he  commanded  to 
a  tlionsand  generations;  (the  covenant)  which  he  made  with 
Abraham,  and  his  oath  unto  Isaac,  and  confirmed  the  same

May  the  All-merciful  bless  the  godfather  who  has  observed 
the  covenant  of  Circumcision  and  rejoiced  exceedingly  to 
perform  this  deed  of  piety;  may  he  requite  him  for  his  act 
with  a  double  recompense,  and  ever  exalt  him  more  and  more. 

May  the  All-merciful  bless  the  tender  infant  that  has 
been  circumcised  on  his  eighth  day;  may  his  hands  and  heart 
be  firm  with  God,  and  may  he  become  worthy  to  appear 
before  the  Divine  Presence  three  times  in  the  year. 

//  the  Mohel  says  Grace,  one  of  the  Company  present  says 
the  following  paragraph  : — 

'  May  the  All-merciful  bless  him  who  has  circumcised  the 
flesh  of  the  foreskin,  duly  fulfilling  each  part  of  the  precept. 
The  service  would  be  invalid  of  one  who  is  timid  and  faint- 
hearted, or  who  failed  to  perform  the  three  essentials  of  the 
ceremony. 

May    the    All-merciful,    regardful    of    the    merit    of    them 
that  are  akin  by  the  blood  of  the  circumcision,   send  us  his 
anointed   walking   in   his   integrity,  to   give   good  tidings  and 
consolation    to    the    people    that    is    scattered    and    dispersed  , 
among   the   peoples. 

May  the  All-merciful  send  us  the  righteous  priest,  who 
'emains  withdrawn  in  concealment  until  a  throne,  bright  as 
the  sun  and  radiant  as  the  diamond,  shall  be  prepared  for 
him,  the  prophet  who  covered  his  face  with  his  mantle  and 
wrapped  himself  therein,  with  whom  is  God's  covenant  of 
life  and  of  peace.

SERVICE  FOR   THE   REDEMPTION   OF  THF

The  first-horn  Child,  if  a  male,  must  be  redeemed  on  the 
thirty-first  day  of  his  birth.  //,  however,  the  Father  be  a 
Cohen  or  a  Levite,  or  the  Mother  the  daughter  of  a  Cohen 
or  a  Levite,  they  are  exempt  from  the  duty  of  Redemption. 
Should  the  thirty-first  day  fall  on  a  Sabbath  or  Holyday, 
the  ceremony  is  postponed  until  the  day  following. 

The  Father,  presenting  his  Child  to  the  Cohen,  makes  the 
following  declaration : — 

I 

This  my  first-born  son  is  the  first-born  of  his  \ 
mother,  and  the  Holy  One,  blessed  be  he,  hath  given  \ 
command  to  redeem  him,  as  it  is  said,  And  those  that  \ 
are  to  be  redeemed  of  them  from  a  month  old  shalt  i| 
thou  redeem,  according  to  thine  estimation,  for  the  !! 
money  of  five  shekels,  after  the  shekel  of  the  sane-  i 
tuary,  the  shekel  being  twenty  gerahs ;  and  it  is  said,  | 
Sanctify  unto  me  all  the  first-born,  w^hatsoever  open-  ' 
eth  the  v^romb  atnong  the  children  of  Israel,  both  of 
man  and  of  beast :  it  is  mine. 

The  Father  then  places  before  the  Cohen  silver  to  the  amount 
of  five  selaim  or  shekels  (four  dollars),  and  the  Cohen  asks  : — 

Which  v^ouldst  thou  rather,  give  me  thy  first-born 
son,  the  first-born  of  his  mother,  or  redeem  him  for 
five  selaim,  which  thou  art  bound  to  give  according 
to  the  Law? 

The  Father  replies  : — 

I  desire  rather  to  redeem  my  son,  and  here  thou 
hast  the  value  of  his  redemption,  which  I  am  bound 
to  give  according  to  the  Law.

The   Cohen  receives  the  redemption  money,  and  returns  the 

Child  to  Jiis  Father,  whereupon  the  latter  says  the  following 

Blessing : — 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  sanctified  us  by  thy  commandments, 
and  s^iven  us  coinmand  concerning  the  redemption  of

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the 
universe,  who  hast  kept  us  in  life,  and  hast  preserved 
us,  and  enabled  us  to  reach  this  season. 

The  Cohen  then  takes  the  redemption  money,  and,  holding  it 
over   the    head    of   the    Child,   says : — 

This  is  instead  of  that,  this  in  commutation  for 
that,  this  in  remission  of  that.  May  this  child  enter 
into  life,  into  the  Law  and  the  fear  of  Heaven.  May 
it  be  God's  will  that  even  as  he  has  been  admitted  to 
redemption,  so  may  he  enter  into  the  Law,  the  nuptial 
canopy,  and  into  good  deeds.    Amen. 

The  Cohen  places  his  hand  upon  the  head  of  the  Child,  and 
pronounces   the  following  Benediction — 

God  make  thee  as  Ephraim  and  Manasseh.  The 
Lord  bless  thee,  and  keep  thee:  the  Lord  make  his 
face  to  shine  upon  thee,  and  be  gracious  unto  thee :  the 
Lord  turn  his  face  unto  thee,  and  give  thee  peace. 

The  Lord  is  thy  guardian:  the  Lord  is  thy  shade 
upon  thy  right  hand.  For  length  of  days,  and  years 
of  life  and  peace  shall  they  add  to  thee.  The  Lord 
shall  guard  thee  from  all  evil;  he  shall  guard  thy 
soul.    Amen.

PRAYER  TO  BE  SAID  BY  A  SICK  PERSON 

Psalm  xxiii. 

A  Psalm  of  David.  The  Lord  is  my  shepherd :  I  shall  not 
want.  He  maketh  me  to  lie  down  in  green  pastures :  he  leadeth 
me  beside  the  still  waters.  He  restoreth  my  soul :  he  guideth 
me  in  the  paths  of  righteousness  for  his  name's  sake.  Yea, 
though  I  walk  through  the  valley  of  the  shadow  of  death, 
I  will  fear  no  ^vil ;  for  thou  art  with  me :  thy  rod  and  thy 
staff,  they  comfort  me.  Thou  preparest  a  table  before  me  in 
the  presence  of  mine  enemies ;  thou  hast  anointed  my  head  with 
oil ;  my  cup  runneth  over.  Surely  happiness  and  lovingkind- 
ness  will  follow  me  all  the  days  of  my  life;  and  I  shall  dwell 
in  the  house  of  the  Lord   for  length  of  days. 

Psalm  ciii. 

A  Psalm  of  David.  Bless  the  Lord,  O  my  soul :  and  all  that 
is  within  me  bless  his  holy  name.  Bless  the  Lord,  O  my  soul, 
and  forget  not  all  his  benefits :  who  forgiveth  all  thine  in- 
iquity; who  healeth  all  thy  diseases:  who  redeemeth  thy  life 
from  the  pit ;  who  crowneth  thee  with  lovingkindness  and 
tender  mercies:  who  satisfieth  thy  mouth  wdth  good  things; 
so  that  thy  youth  is  renewed  like  the  eagle's.  The  Lord  ex- 
ecuteth  righteous  acts,  and  judgments  for  all  that  are  op^ 
pressed.  He  made  known  his  ways  unto  Moses,  his  doings 
unto  the  children  of  Israel.  The  Lord  is  merciful  and  gracious, 
slow  to  anger,  and  abounding  in  lovingkindness.  He  will  not 
always  contend ;  neither  will  he  keep  his  anger  for  ever.  He 
hath  not  dealt  with  us  after  our  sins,  nor  requited  us  after 
our  iniquities.  For  as  the  heaven  is  high  above  the  earth, 
so  mighty  is  his  lovingkindness  over  them  that  fear  him. 
As  far  as  the  east  is  from  the  w^est,  so  far  hath  he  removed 
our  transgressions  from  us.  Like  as  a  father  hath  mercy 
upon  his  children,  so  the  Lord  hath  mercy  upon  them  that 
fear  him.  For  he  knoweth  our  frame ;  he  remembereth  that 
we  are  dust.  As  for  man,  his  days  are  as  grass ;  as  the  flov/er 
of  the  field,  so  he  flourislieth.  For  the  wind  passeth  over  it, 
and  it  is  gone;  and  the  place  thereof  shall  know  it  no  more. 
But  the  lovingkindness  of  the  Lord  is  from  everlasting  to 
everlasting  upon  them  that  fear  him,  and  his  righteousness 
unto  children's  children,  to  such  as  keep  his  covenant,  and 
to  those  that  jemember  his  precepts  to  do  them.    The  Lord

hath  estabUshed  his  throne  in  the  heavens ;  and  his  kingdom 
ruleth  over  all.  Bless  the  Lord,  ye  his  angels :  ye  mighty  in 
strength,  that  fulfil  his  word,  hearkening  unto  the  voice  of 
his  word.  Bless  the  Lord,  all  ye  his  hosts ;  ye  ministers  of 
his,  that  do  his  will.  Bless  the  Lord,  all  ye  his  works,  in  all 
plates  of  his  dominion:  bless  the  Lord,  O  my  soul. 


Psalm  cxxxix. 


For  the  Chief  Musician.  A  Psalm  of  David.  O  Lord,  thou 
hast  searched  me,  and  knowest  me.  Thou  knowest  my  down- 
sitting  and  mine  uprising,  thou  understandest  my  thoughts 
afar  off.  Thou  si f test  my  path  and  my  lying  down,  and  art 
familiar  with  all  my  ways.  For  while  there  is  not  yet  a  word 
on  my  tongue,  lo,  thou,  O  Lord,  knowest  it  all.  Thou  hast 
beset  me  behind  and  before,  and  laid  thine  hand  upon  me. 
Such  knowledge  is  too  wonderful  for  me ;  it  is  too  high,  I 
cannot  attain  unto  it.  Whither  can  I  go  from  thy  spirit?  or 
whither  can  I  flee  from  thy  presence?  If  I  ascend  into  heaven, 
thou  art  there:  or  if  I  make  the  grave  m^  bed,  behold  thou 
art  there.  If  I  take  the  wings  of  the  morning,  and  dwell  in 
the  uttermost  parts  of  the  sea,  even  there  shall  thy  hand 
lead  me,  and  thy  right  hand  shall  hold  me.  If  I  say,  Let  deep 
darkness  cover  me,  and  the  light  about  me  be  night ;  even  the 
darkness  darkeneth  not  from  thee,  but  the  night  is  light 
as  the  day — the  darkness  is  as  the  light.  For  thou  didst  form 
my  reins :  thou  didst  weave  me  together  in  my  mother's  womb. 
I  will  give  thanks  unto  thee,  for  that  I  am  fearfully  and  won- 
derfully made:  wonderful  are  thy  works  and  that  my  soul 
knoweth  right  well.  My  frame  was  not  hidden  from  thee, 
when  I  was  made  in  secret,  and  curiously  wrought  in  the 
depths  of  the  earth.  Thine  eyes  did  see  mine  unshapen  sub- 
stance ;  and  in  thy  book  the  days,  even  all  of  them  that 
were  to  be  formed,  were  written,  and  for  it  also  there  was 
one  among  them.     How  precious  unto  me  are  thy  thoughts, 

0  God!  How  great  is  the  sum  of  them!  If  I  would  counr 
them,  they  are  more  in  number  than  the  sand :  when  I  awake, 

1  am  still  with  thee.  O  that  thou  wouldst  slay  the  wicked, 
0  God:  depart  from  me,  ye  bloodthirsty  men:  they  who 
mention  thee  for  treachery,  thine  adversaries  who  take  th^ 
aame  in  vain.  Do  not  I  hate  them,  O  Lord,  that  hate  thee? 
and   do  not   I  strive  with  those   that   rise  vjp  against   thee?

457  PRAYER  TO  BE  SAID  BY  A  SICK   PERSON 

I  hate  them  with  perfect  hatred:  they  are  become  mine 
enemies.  Search  me,  O  God,  and  know  my  heart:  try  me, 
and  know  my  thoughts :  and  see  if  there  be  any  way  of 
sorrow  in  me,  and  lead  me  in  the  way  everlasting 

A  prayer  of  the  afEicted  when  he  fainteth,  and  poureth  out 
his  complaint  before  the  Lord.  Hear  my  prayer,  O  Lord,  and 
let  my  cry  come  unto  thee.  Hide  not  thy  face  from  me  in  the 
day  of  my  distress :  incline  thy  ear  unto  me ;  in  the  day  when 
I  call  answer  me  speedily.  I  beseech  thee,  O  Lord,  Healer  of 
all  flesh,  have  mercy  upon  me,  and  support  me  in  thy  grace 
upon  my  bed  of  sickness,  for  I  am  weak.  Send  me  and  all 
who  are  sick  among  thy  children  relief  and  cure.  Assuage  my 
pain,  and  renew  my  youth  as  the  eagle's.  Vouchsafe  wisdom 
unto  the  physician  that  he  may  cure  my  wound,  and  so  that  my 
health  may  spring  forth  speedily.  Hear  my  prayer,  prolong 
my  life,  let  me  complete  my  years  in  happiness,  that  I  may  be 
enabled  to  serve  thee  and  keep  thy  statutes  with  a  perfect 
heart.  Give  me  understanding  to  know  that  this  bitter  trial 
hath  come  upon  me  for  my  welfare,  so  that  I  may  not  despise 
thy  chastening  nor  weary  of  thy  reproof. 

O  God  of  forgiveness,  who  art  gracious  and  merciful,  slow 
to  anger  and  abounding  in  lovingkindness,  I  confess  unto  thee 
with  a  broken  and  contrite  heart  that  I  have  sinned,  and 
have  done  that  which  is  evil  in  thy  sight.  Behold,  I  repent 
me  of  my  evil  way,  and  return  unto  thee  with  perfect  re- 
pentance. Help  me,  O  God  of  my  salvation,  that  I  may  not 
again  turn  unto  folly,  but  walk  before  thee  in  truth  and  up- 
rightness. Rejoice  the  soul  of  thy  servant,  for  unto  thee, 
O  Lord,  do  I  lift  up  my  soul.  Heal  me,  O  Lord,  and  I  shall 
be  healed,  save  me,  and  I  shall  be  saved,  for  thou  art  my 
praise.     Amen,  and  Amen!

CONFESSION   ON  A  DEATH-BED 


I  acknowledge  unto  thee,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God 
of  my  fathers,  that  both  my  cure  and  my  death  are  in 
thy  hands.  May  it  be  thy  will  to  send  me  a  perfect 
healing.  Yet  if  my  death  be  fully  determined  by  thee, 
I  will  in  love  accept  it  at  thy  hand.  O  may  my  death 
be  an  atonement  for  all  the  sins,  iniquities  and  trans- 
gressions of  which  I  have  been  guilty  against  thee. 
Vouchsafe  unto  me  of  the  bounding  happiness  that  is 
treasured  up  for  the  righteous.  Make  known  to  me  the 
path  of  Hfe:  in  thy  presence  is  fulness  of  joy;  at  thy 
right  hand  are  pleasures  for  evermore. 

Thou  who  art  the  father  of  the  fatherless  and  judge 
of  the  widow,  protect  my  beloved  kindred  with  whose 
soul  my  own  is  knit.  Into  thy  hand  I  commend  my 
spirit;  thou  hast  redeemed  me,  O  Lord  God  of  truth. 
Amen,  and  Amen! 

When  the  end  is  approaching  : — 

The  Lord  reigneth ;  the  Lord  hath  reigned;  the 
Lord  shall  reign  for  ever  and  ever.  (To  be  said  three 
times. ) 

Blessed  be  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom  is 
for  ever  and  ever.     [To  he  said  three  times.) 

The  Lord  he  is  God.     {To  he  said  seven  times.) 

Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord  is  one.

THE  BURIAL  SERVICE 

On  those  days  on  which  Tachanun  (p.70)  is  not  said,  PsahJ 
xvi.   (p.  460)   is  read  instead  of  the  following: — 

The  Rock,  his  work  is  perfect,  for  all  his  ways  are  judg- 
ment: a  God  of  faithfulness  and  without  iniquity,  just  and 
right  is  he.    The  Rock,  perfect  in  every  work,  who  can  say  un- 
to him,  What  workest  thou?     He   ruleth  below  and  above; 
he  killeth  and  maketh  alive:  he  bringeth  down  to  the  grave, 
and  bringeth  up  again.    The  Rock,  perfect  in  every  deed,  who 
can  say  unto  him,    What  doest  thou?     O  thou  who  speakest 
and  doest,  of  thy  grace  deal  kindly  with  us,  and  for  the  sake 
of  him  who  was  bound  like  a  lamb,  O  hearken  and  do.    Just 
in  all  thy  ways  art  thou,  O  perfect  Rock,  slow  to  anger  and 
full  of  compassion.     Spare  and  have  pity  upon  parents  and 
children,    for    thine,    Lord,    is    forgiveness    and    compassion. 
Just  art  thou,  O  Lord,  in  killing  and  in  making  alive,  in  whose 
hand  is  the  charge  of  all  spirits;  far  be  it  from  thee  to  blot 
out   our   remembrance:    O    let   thine    eyes    mercifully   regard 
us  for  thine.  Lord,  is  compassion  and  forgiveness.     If  a  man 
live  a  year  or  a  thousand  years,  what  profiteth  it  him?  He 
shall  be  as   though  he  had  not  been.     Blessed  be   the   true 
Judge,  who  killeth  and  maketh  alive.     Blessed  be  he,  for  his 
judgment  is  true,  and  his   eye  discerneth  all  things,  and  he 
awardeth  unto  man  his  reckoning  and  his  sentence,  and  all 
must  render  acknowledgment  unto  him.     We  know,  O  Lord, 
that    thy    judgment    is    righteous:    thou    art    justified    when 
thou  speakest,  and  pure  when  thou  judgest,  and  it  is  not  for 
us  to  murmur  at  thy  method  of  judging;  just  art  thou,   O 
Lord,  and  righteous  are  thy  judgments.    O  true  and  righteous 
judge!     Blessed  be  the  true  judge,  all  whose  judgments  are 
righteous  and  true.     The  soul  of  every  living  thing  is  in  thy 
hand;  thy  right  hand  is  full  of  righteousness.     Have  mercy

460  THE   BURIAL   SERVICE 

Upon  the  remnant  of  the  flock  of  thy  hand,  and  saj'  unto 
the  angel,  Stay  thy  hand.  Thou  art  great  in  counsel  and 
mighty  in  deed  ;  thine  eyes  are  open  upon  all  the  ways  of  the 
children  of  men,  to  give  unto  every  one  according  to  his  ways, 
and  according  to  the  fruit  of  his  doings.  To  declare  that  the 
Lord  is  upright ;  he  is  my  Rock,  and  there  is  no  unrighteous- 
ness in  him.  The  Lord  gave,  and  the  Lord  hath  taken  away; 
blessed  be  the  name  of  the  Lord.  And  he,  being  merciful, 
forgiveth  iniquity  and  destroyeth  not:  yea,  many  a  time  he 
tumeth  his  anger  away,  and  doth  not  stir  up  all  his  wrath. 

Psalm  xvi. 

Michtam  of  David. — Guard  me,  O  God,  for  in  thee  do  I 
take  refuge.  I  say  unto  the  Lord,  Thou  art  my  lord:  I 
have  no  good  beyond  thee.  As  for  the  saints  that  are  in  the 
earth,  they  are  the  noble  ones  in  whom  is  all  my  delight. 
Their  sorrows  will  be  multiplied  that  have  gotten  unto  them- 
selves another  God:  their  drink  offerings  of  blood  will  I 
not  pour  out,  nor  take  their  names  upon  my  lips.  The  Lord 
is  the  portion  of  mine  inheritance  and  of  my  cup :  thou 
maintainest  my  lot.  The  lines  are  fallen  unto  me_  in  pleasant 
places;  yea,  I  have  a  delightsome  heritage.  I  will  bless  the 
Lord,  who  hath  given  me  counsel :  yea,  my  reins  admonish 
me  in  the  night  seasons.  I  have  set  the  Lord  always  before 
me:  because  he  is  at  my  right  hand,  I  shall  not  be  moved. 
Therefore  my  heart  rejoiceth  and  my  glory  is  glad:  my  flesh 
also  will  dwell  in  safety.  For  thou  will  not  abandon  my 
soul  to  'he  grave:  neither  wilt  thou  suffer  thy  loving  one  to 
see  the  pit.  Thou  wilt  make  known  to  me  the  path  of  life: 
in  thy  presence  is  fulness  of  joy;  at  thy  right  hand  are  pleas- 
ures   from   evermore. 

The  co^n  is  borne  from  the  Hall  to  the  Burial  Grounds 
Those  who  have  not  visited  the  Burial  Ground  for  thirty 
days,  say  the  following-. — 

Blessed  be  the  Lord  our  God,  King  of  the  universe,  who 
formed  you  in  judgment,  who  nourished  and  sustained  you  in 
judgment,  who  brought  death  on  you  in  judgment,  who 
knoweth  the  number  of  you  all  in  judgment,  and  will  here- 
after restore  you  to  life  in  judgment.  Blessed  art  thou. 
O  Lord,  who  quickenest  the  dead.

401  THE  BURIAL  SERVICE 

Thou,  O  Lord,  art  mighty  for  ever,  thou  quicken- 
est  the  dead,  thou  art  mighty  to  save.  Thou  sus- 
tainest  the  Hving  with  lovingkindness,  quickenest  the 
dead  with  great  mercy,  supportest  the  falhng,  healest 
the  sick,  loosest  the  bound,  and  keepest  thy  faith  to 
them  that  sleep  in  the  dust.  Who  is  like  unto  thee, 
Lord  of  mighty  acts,  and  who  resembleth  thee,  O 
King,  who  killest  and  quickenest,  and  causest  salva- 
tion to  spring  forth  ?  Yea,  faithful  art  thou  to  quicken 
the  dead. 

When  the  coffin  is  lowered  into  the  Grave,  the  following  is 
said,  the  sentence  beijig  varied  according  to  the  sex  of  the 

departed : — 

May  he  come  to  his  place  in  peace. 

May  she  come  to  her  place  in  peace. 

On  quitting  the  Burial  Ground  it  is  customary  to  pluck  some 
grass,  and  to  say  one  of  the  following  sentences: — 

And  they  of  the  city  shall  flourish  like  the  grass  of 
the  earth 

He  remembereih  tliai  we  are  dust. 

All  those  who  have  been  present  at  the  Interment  wash  their 
hands  and  say  : — 

He  will  destroy  death  for  ever ;  and  the  Lord  God 
will  wipe  away  tears  from  off  all  faces ;  and  the  rebuke 
of  his  people  shall  he  take  away  from  off  all  the  earth : 
for  the  Lord  hath  spoken  it. 

They  then  return  to  the  Hall,  and  say,  "And  let  the  pleasant- 
ness of  the  Lord  our  God  be  upon  us,"  to  "my  salvation," 
p.  439.

462  THE   BURIAL   SERVICE 

The  following  Kaddish  is  said  by  children  after  the  Burial 
of  their  Parents.  On  those  days  on  which  Tachanun  is 
not  said   (/>.  70)    the  Kaddish,  p.  94,  is  substituted. 

Mourners. — May  his  great  name  be  magnified  and 
sanctified  in  the  world  that  is  to  be  created  anew, 
where  he  will  quicken  the  dead,  and  raise  them  up 
into  life  eternal;  will  rebuild  the  city  of  Jerusalem,  and 
establish  his  temple  in  the  midst  thereof ;  and  will  up' 
root  all  alien  w^orship  from  the  earth  and  restore  the 
worship  of  the  true  God.  O  may  the  Holy  One,  blessed 
be  he,  reign  in  his  sovereignty  and  glory  during  your 
life  and  during  your  days,  and  during  the  life  of  all 
the  house  of  Israel,  even  speedily  and  at  a  near  time, 
and  say  ye.  Amen. 

Cong,  and  Mourners. — Let  his  great  name  be 
blessed  for  ever  and  to  all  eternity. 

Mourners. — Blessed,  praised  and  glorified,  exalted, 
extolled  and  honored,  m.agnified  and  lauded  be  the

PRAYER  IN  THE  HOUSE  OF  MOURNING 


/ifter  the  ordinary  Daily  Service,  the  following  Psalm  (xlix.) 
is  read  in  the  House  of  the  Mourner.  On  those  days  on 
which  Tachamin  {p.  70)  is  not  said,  Psalm  xvi.  p.  460,  is 
substituted  for  Psalm  xlix. 

Psalm  xlix.  For  the  Chief  Musician.  A  Psalm  of  the  Sons 
of  Korah. 
Hear  this  all  ye  peoples ;  give  ear,  all  ye  inhabitants  of  the 
world :  both  low  and  high,  rich  and  poor  together.  My  mouth 
shall  speak  wisdom ;  and  the  meditation  of  my  heart 
shall  be  of  understanding.  I  will  incline  mine  ear  to  a 
parable:  I  will  open  my  dark  saying  to  the  lyre.  Wherefore 
should  I  fear  in  the  days  of  evil,  when  the  iniquity  of  them 
that  would  supplant  me  compasseth  me  about,  even  of  them 
that  trust  in  their  wealth,  and  boast  themselves  in  the  multi- 
tude of  their  riches?  None  of  them  can  by  any  means  re- 
deem his  brother,  nor  give  to  God  a  ransom  for  him:  (for 
the  redemption  of  their  soul  is  costly,  and  must  be  let  alone 
for  ever:)  that  he  should  still  live  always,  that  he  should 
not  see  the  pit.  For  he  will  see  that  wise  men  die,  the  fool 
and  the  brutish  together  perish,  and  leave  their  wealth  to 
others.  Their  inward  thought  is,  that  their  houses  shall 
continue  for  ever,  and  their  dwelling  places  to  all  genera- 
tions ;  they  call  their  lands  after  their  own  names.  But  man 
that  is  in  glory  abideth  not:  he  is  like  the  beasts  that  perish. 
This  is  the  way  of  them  that  are  foolish,  and  of  those  who 
after  them  take  pleasure  in  their  speech.  (Selah.)  Like 
sheep  they  are  laid  in  the  grave ;  death  shall  be  their  shep- 
herd :  but  the  upright  shall  have  dominion  over  them  in  the 
morning;  and  their  form  shall  be  for  the  grave  to  consume, 
that  there  be  no  habitation  for  it.  But  God  will  redeem  my 
soul  from  the  grasp  of  the  grave :  for  he  will  receive  me. 
(Selah.)  Be  not  thou  afraid  when  a  man  becometh  rich,  when 
the  glory  of  his  house  is  increased :  for  at  his  death  he  shall 
carry  nothing  away;  his  glory  shall  not  descend  after  him. 
Though  while  he  lived  he  blessed  his  soul,  and  though  men 
praise  thee  that  thou  doest  well  unto  thyself,  he  shall  go  to 
the  generation  of  his  fathers,  who  shall  never  see  the  light. 
Man  that  is  in  glory,  but  without  understanding,  is  like  the 
leasts  that  perish.

Psalm  xxxIx. 

For  the  Chief  Musician,  for  Jeduthun.   A  Psalm  of  David.-^ 
I  said,  I  will  take  heed  to  my  ways,  that  I  sin  not  with  my 
tongue :  I  will  keep  my  mouth  with  a  bridle,  while  the  wicked 
is  before  me.    I  was  dumb,  and  kept  silence,  I  held  my  peace, 
and  had  no  comfort:  and  my  sorrow  was  stirred.     My  heart 
was  hot  within  me;  while  I  was  musing  the  fire  kindled:  then 
spake  I  with  my  tongue:  Lord,  make  me  to  know  mine  end, 
and  the  measure  of  my  days,  what  it  is;  let  me  know  how 
fleeting  I   am.     Behold,  thou  hast  made  my  days  as  hand- 
breadths;  and  my  lifetime  is  as  nothing  before  thee:  surely 
every  man,  though  he  stand  firm,  is  but  a  breath.     (Selah.) 
Surely  as  a  mere  semblance  every  man  walketh  to  and  fro: 
surely  they  are  disquieted  for  vanity :  he  heapeth  up  riches  and 
knoweth  not  who  shall  gather  them.     And  now.  Lord,  what 
wait  I  for?     My  hope  is  in  thee.     Deliver  me  from  all  my 
transgressions;  make  me  not  the  reproach  of  the  foolish.     I 
was  dumb,   I  opened  not  my  mouth;  because  thou  didst  it. 
Remove  thy  stroke  away  from  me:   I  am  consumed  by  the 
blow  of  thine  hand.     When  thou  with  rebukes  dost  chasten 
man  for  iniquity,  thou  makest  his  beauty  to  waste  away  like 
a  moth:  surely  every  man  is  a  breath.     (Selah.)     Hear  my 
prayer,  O  Lord,  and  give  ear  unto  my  cry ;  hold  not  thy  peace 
at  my  tears;  for  I  am  a  stranger  with  thee,  a  sojourner,  as  all 
my  fathers  were.    O  spare  me,  that  I  may  again  be  glad,  before 
I  go  hence,  and  be  no  more. 

O  Lord  and  King,  who  art  full  of  compassion,  in  whose 
hand  is  the  soul  of  every  living  thing  and  the  breath  of  all 
flesh,  who  killest  and  makest  alive,  who  bringest  down  to  the 
grave   and   bringest   up   again,    receive,   we   beseech    thee,   in 

thy    great    lovingkindness   the    soul    of   who   hath    been 

gathered    unto    his    [her]    people.      Have    mercy    upon    him

465  PRAYER  IN  THE   HOUSE  OF  MOURNING 

[her]  ;  pardon  all  his  [her]  transgressions,  for  there  is  not  a 
righteous  man  upon  earth,  who  doeth  good  and  sinneth  not. 
Remember  unto  him  [her]  the  righteousness  which  he  [she] 
wrought,  and  let  his  [her]  reward  be  with  him  [her],  and  his 
[her]  recompense  before  him  [her].  O  shelter  his  [her]  soul 
in  the  shadow  of  thy  wings.  Make  known  to  him  [her]  the 
path  of  life:  in  thy  presence  is  fulness  of  joy;  at  thy  right 
hand  are  pleasures  for  evermore.  Vouchsafe  unto  him  [her] 
of  the  abounding  happiness  that  is  treasured  up  for  the 
righteous,  as  it  is  written,  Oh  how  great  is  thy  goodness, 
which  thou  hast  laid  up  for  them  that  fear  thee,  which  thou 
hast  wrought  for  them  that  trust  in  thee  before  the  children 
of  men  I 

O  Lord,  who  healest  the  broken-hearted  and  bindest  up 
their  wounds,  grant  thy  consolation  unto  the  mourners :  put 
into  their  hearts  the  fear  and  love  of  thee,  that  they  may  serve 
thee  with  a  perfect  heart,  and  let  their  latter  end  be  peace. 
Amen. 

Like  one  whom  his  mother  comforteth,  so  will  I  comfort 
you,  and  in  Jerusalem  shall  ye  be  comforted.  Thy  sun  shall  no 
more  go  down,  neither  shall  thy  moon  withdraw  itself :  for 
the  Lord  shall  be  thine  everlasting  light,  and  the  days  of  thy 
mourning  shall  be  ended.  He  will  destroy  death  for  ever; 
and  the  Lord  God  will  wipe  away  tears  from  off  all  faces; 
and  the  rebuke  of  his  people  shall  he  take  away  from  off  all 
the  earth :   for  the  Lord  hath  spoken  it.

SERVICE  AT  THE  SETTING  OF  A 
TOMBSTONE 

Psalm  i. 

Happy  is  the  man  that  walketh  not  in  the  counsel  of  the 
wicked,  nor  standeth  in  the  way  of  sinners,  nor  sitteth  in  the 
seat  of  the  scornful.  But  his  delight  is  in  the  law  of  the  Lord ; 
and  in  his  law  doth  he  meditate  day  and  night.  And  he  shall 
be  like  a  tree  planted  by  the  streams  of  water,  that  bringeth 
forth  its  fruit  in  its  season,  whose  leaf  also  doth  not  wither; 
and  whatsoever  he  doeth  shall  prosper.  The  wicked  are  not 
so;  but  are  like  the  chaff  which  the  wind  driveth  away. 
Therefore  the  wicked  shall  not  stand  in  the  judgment,  nor 
sinners  in  the  congregation  of  the  righteous.  For  the  Lord 
knoweth  the  way  of  the  righteous,  but  the  way  of  the  wicked 
shall  perish. 

Psalm  XV.,  p.  445 ;  xvi.  p.  460 ;  xc.  p.  26. 

As  for  man,  his  days  are  as  grass;  as  the  flower  of  the 
field,  so  he  flourisheth.  For  the  wind  passeth  over  it,  and  it 
is  gone ;  and  the  place  thereof  shall  know  it  no  more.  But 
the  lovingkindness  of  the  Lord  is  from  everlasting  to  ever- 
lasting upon  them  that  fear  him,  and  his  righteousness  unto 
children's  children.  Oh  that  they  were  wise,  that  they  under- 
stood this,  that  they  would  consider  their  latter  end.  For 
at  his  death  he  shall  carry  nothing  away;  his  glory  shall  not 
descend  after  him.  Mark  the  innocent  man,  and  behold  the 
upright;  for  the  latter  end  of  that  man  is  peace.  The  Lord 
setteth  free  the  soul  of  his  servants ;  and  none  that  take 
refuge  in  him  shall  be  condemned.  How  precious  is  thy 
lovingkindness,  O  God !  and  the  children  of  men  take  refuge 
under  the  shadow  of  thy  wings.  They  sate  themselves  with 
the  fatness  of  thy  house ;  and  thou  givest  them  to  drink  of  the 
river  of  thy  pleasures.  He  shall  enter  into  peace  ;  they  shall 
rest  on  their  beds — each  one  that  walketh  in  his  upright' 
ness. 

Psalm  xci.  p.  27;  "0  Lord  and  King,  who  art  full  of  com- 
passion," etc.,  p.  464;  Mourner's  Kaddish,  p.  94.

MEMORIAL  SERVICE  FOR  THE  DEAD 


On  Holy  Days,  when  the  Memorial  Service  is  held,  and  on  the 

Anniversaries  of  the  Death  of  Parents,  the  following 

is  said : — 


Lord,  what  is  man,  that  thou  regardest  him?  or  the 
son  of  ;man,  that  thou  takest  account  of  him?  Man 
is  Hke  to  vanity;  his  days  are  as  a  shadow  that  pass- 
eth  away.  In  the  morning  he  flourisheth,  and  sprout- 
eth  afresh ;  in  the  evening  he  is  cut  down,  and  wither- 
eth.  So  teach  us  to  number  our  days  that  we  may  get 
us  a  heart  of  wisdom.  Mark  the  innocent  man,  and 
behold  the  upright:  for  the  latter  end  of  that  man  is 
peace.  But  God  will  redeem  my  soul  from  the  grasp 
of  the  grave:  for  he  will  receive  me.  My  flesh  and 
my  heart  faileth:  but  God  is  the  strength  of  my  heart 
and  my  portion  for  ever.  And  the  dust  returneth  to 
the  earth  as  it  was,  but  the  spirit  returneth  unto  God 
who  gave  it.  I  shall  behold  thy  face  in  righteousness ; 
I  shall  be  satisfied,  when  I  awake,  with  thy  likeness. 

May  God  remember  the  soul  of  my  revered  father 
[mother]  who  has  gone  to  his  [her]  repose.  May  his 
[her]  soul  be  bound  up  in  the  bond  of  life.  May  his 
[her]  rest  be  glorious,  with  fulness  of  joy  in  thy 
presence,  and  pleasures  for  evermore  at  thy  right 
hand. 

Father  of  mercy,  in  whose  hand  are  the  souls  of  the 
living  and  the  dead,  may  thy  consolation  cheer  us  as 
we  remember  (on  this  holy  day)  our  beloved  and 
honored  kinsfolk  who  have  gone  to  their  rest,  our 
dear  parents,  the  crown  of  our  head  and  our  glory, 
whose  desire  it  was  to  train  us  m  the  good  and 
righteous  way,  to  teach  us  thy  statutes  and  command-

ments,  and  to  instruct  us  to  do  justice  and  to  love 
mercy.  We  beseech  thee,  O  Lord,  grant  us  strength  to 
be  faithful  to  their  charge  while  the  breath  of  life  is 
within  us.  And  may  their  souls  repose  in  the  land  of 
the  living,  beholding  thy  glory  and  delighting  in  thy 
goodness. 

And  now,  O  good  and  beneficent  God,  what  shall 
we  say,  what  shall  we  speak  unto  thee?     Our  needs 
are  many,  our  knowledge  slender.     Shame  covers  us 
as  often  as  the  remembrance  of  all  thy  love  for  us 
rises  within  our  minds.    O  turn  this  day  in  lovingkind- 
ness  and  tender  mercy  to  the  prayers  of  thy  servants 
who  pour  out  their  souls  before  thee.    May  thy  loving- 
kindness  not  depart  from  us.     Give  us  our  needful 
sustenance,  and  let  us  not  be  in  want  of  the  gifts  of 
flesh   and  blood.     Remove  from  us  care  and  sorow, 
distress  and  fear,  shame  and  contempt.    Let  thy  grace 
be  with  us,  that  we  may  rear  our  children  to  keep 
thy  commandments  and  to  fulfil  thy  will  all  the  days 
of  their  life.     O  God,  take  us  not  hence  in  the  midst 
of  our  days.    Let  us  complete  in  peace  the  numher  of 
our  years.    Verily  we  know  that  our  strength  is  frail, 
and  that  thou  hast  made  our  days  as  handbreadths. 
Help  us,  O  God  of  our  salvation,  to  bear  ourselves 
faithfully  and  blamelessly  during  the  years  of  our  pil- 
grimage.    And  when  our  end  draws  nigh  and  we  de-  i 
part  this  world,  be  thou  with  us,  and  may  our  souls  be 
bound  up  in  the  bond  of  life  with  the  souls  of  our 
parents  and  of  the  righteous  who  are  ever  with  thee. 
Amen,  and  Amen.

NIGHT  PRAYER  FOR  YbUNG  CHILDREN 

Blessed  art  thou,  O  Lord  our  God,  King  of  th^ 
universe,  who  makest  the  bands  of  sleep  to  fall  upon 
mine  eyes,  and  slumber  upon  mine  eyelids. 

May  it  be  thy  will,  O  Lord  my  God  and  God  of  my 
fathers,  to  suffer  me  to  lie  down  in  peace,  and  to  let 
me  rise  up  again  in  peace. 

Hear,  O  Israel :  the  Lord  our  God,  the  Lord  is  One. 

Blessed  be  His  name,  whose  glorious  kingdom  is 
for  ever  and  ever. 

And  thou  shalt  love  the  Lord  thy  God  with  all 
thine  heart,  and  with  all  thy  soul,  and  with  all  thy 
might. 

And  these  words  which  I  command  thee  this  day 
shall  be  upon  thine  heart:  and  thou  shalt  teach  them 
diligently  unto  thy  children,  and  thou  shalt  talk  of  them 
when  thou  sittest  in  thine  house,  and  when  thou  walk- 
est  by  the  way,  and  when  thou  liest  down,  and  when 
thou  risest  up.  And  thou  shalt  bind  them  for  a  sign 
upon  thine  hand,  and  they  shall  be  for  frontlets  be- 
tween thine  eyes.  And  thou  shalt  write  them  upon  the 
doorposts  of  thy  house  and  upon  thy  gates. 

Blessed  be  the  Lord  by  day ;  blessed  be  the  Lord  by 
night.  Blessed  be  the  Lord  when  we  lie  down ;  blessed 
be  the  Lord  when  we  rise  up. 

Behold,  he  that  guardeth  Israel  will  neither  slumber 
nor  sleep. 

Into  thy  hand  I  commend  my  spirit:  thou  hast  re- 
deemed me,  O  Lord  God  of  truth. 

For  thy  salvation  I  hope,  O  Lord.
